It was one of two large Buddha statues in the Bamiyan valley, but they were destroyed in 2001 by the Taliban.
Sarcasm is hard to read on the internet. I was talking about 9/11.
Wasn't that al Qaeda?
Yes. The two were allied closely enough, however, that the anti-Taliban leader Ahmad Shah Massoud got wind of the plans from spies placed in the Taliban (he relayed a warning to the US, which was ignored - Massoud would be assassinated by Al-Qaeda two days before 9/11), and the Taliban would subsequently offer asylum to Osama Bin Laden in the immediate aftermath of 9/11.
Depends on who you ask and when you ask it.
