Why does the Taliban destroy ancient sites?

Why does the Taliban destroy ancient sites? What purpose is there to bulldozing a place that has nothing to do with their religion that researchers, archaeologists, tourists, etc. would love to come and see? No other religion espouses hostility towards ancient monuments like they do.

      Those statues are idols and Islam is heavy on destroying idols.

      Because its a risk to idolatry

      What the frick idolatry is going on. It's just statues of random made up creatures. Has nothing to do with Islam. Are muttlims really this moronic?

        Say what you want but at least Muslims try to follow the rules of their holy book. With the exception of Harems of course.

        Muslims are the least mutted people that exist, they literally marry their own cousins regularly.

            They are both inbred and mutted
            Every people of note have once conquered and settled it, leading to extreme multicultural muttism
            Islam caused massive inbreeding, and naval exploration decreased its importance as a gateway to the east, leading to even more isolation and inbreeding

    The Bamiyan Buddha statues were demolished because archaeologists were funding the repair of them and the Taliban chimped out over that money not being gibs for the local camel piss-drinkers

        They're certainly part of it. Statues can show us things about how people of the past viewed religion, rulers, art, etc.

    What are their plans for the near future anyway? Would the Taliban be open to good relations with any Western country in the future? Doesn't seem like they gave a shit about anything other than getting Afghanistan back under their thumb.

    Talibans are in Afghanistan, you fricking moron.

    And they didn't blow up the Buddha statue because of idolatry, they did it because you Westerners are the biggest hypocrites on the planet. You preach about human rights, aid, "the international community" and wanted to spend billions of dollars to preserve a Buddha statue after you had bombed Afghanistan to the ground and raped their women and girls shortly before killing them.

      buddhas were destroyed in march 2001 and afghanistan wasn't invaded until october. why are you brown people so proud of being ignorant and stupid? not that the logic of "you don't care about us enough so we're going to destroy random nice things" makes any sense in the first place.
