They were pieces of history and examples of exquisite craftsmanship, be they of the right faith or not. I wish the world would turn to Christianity, but there are still incredible pieces of art of other faiths I wouldn't want blown up :/

The Taliban is so excited about blowing things up, they shouldn’t object when we fly Predators and Raptors over them.

"But today, teams from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, along with the International Council on Monuments and Sites, are engaged in the painstaking process of putting the broken Buddhas back together." The taliban will just blow them up again 5 minutes after we leave.

I can understand the Taliban being scared of Buddhism. It’s the empty hand that becons. Not their style at all.

combining the monument's original pieces with modern material.Maybe that other material otta be some nice binary high explosive. The next time they blow them up the whole mountain lands on them.
