- JOIN ME as I explore the Buddhist temple ruins of Bamyan.
The Taliban’s destruction of the Bamiyan Buddha statues in early 2001 was seen around the world and caused outrage with locals and the international community.
The taliban no longer allow locals inside the temple but do allow foreign visitors to have a look… let’s check it out!
I would like to know if you agree or disagree with the destruction of the temples.

Callum. Did the dead Afghan children annoy you as much as the Statues?
Reaching 💀💀
off camera maybe
Islam came to freed human being from worshipping creations to the Creator only
💩
Doing a grande job Callum Afghanistan is definitely beautiful and their food looks delicious
Come from Hot water podcast and love this channel as am trying to start travelling myself 👍🏻
That looks huge.
Kinda like something out of a tomb raider game.
Big up Callum
I read an archaeological magazine about 25 years ago before most people had even heard of the Taliban. The magazine ran an article on the destruction of ancient sites by a tribe called the Taliban. I thought that a better idea would be to preserve such places and use them for tourist purposes eventually. Tourism is big business in many places that have ancient ruins etc.
I agree with your point. I was reading about this monument destruction recently and found out that when US invaded Afghanistan and killed many civilians, nobody was providing medical aid for injured civilians during US invasion and during same time US sent people to preserve that monument. Civilians looked it as a unliving stone monument is more valuable than living human being and as a protest Taliban destroyed it
Glad your enjoying your trip Callum,,the weather seems quite hot
Actually it very cold in bamyan summer average day temperature is 20 degrees night goes down to 3 degrees quite cold for summer you can google bamyan weather

I Just Returned From Dubai To Kabul Yesterday And There were Dozens Of Foreigners With me on the Flight Westerners
@@kodvavi150certainly not if you’re a white westerner or a woman or gay..
@@sherlockgnomes8971Absolute rubbish. If you respect the country’s laws and cultures you are absolutely safe. ( not sure why you’d want to advertise your bedroom preferences though!!!!!!)
Love these videos callum ❤
Glad you like them!
Great channel
Quality wee man
Them destroying ancient temples just illustrates what a pointless culture they've built out there
Back then and now non-Afghans care more for statutes than the poor hungry people of Afghanistan.
Anybody else here from Have A Word?
Mulla omar will be raised on the day of judgment as a destroyer of idols , inshallah among khalid ibn waleed and other idols destroyers
Well said, should not have been destroyed…
Back then taliban were a little immature but now they realise how to deal with such stuff
How are you adds bare bro ? Gripping content UA-cam needs too sort it out hope your good and safe
Seriously having a Callum abroad withdrawal! Hope your ok I know your in Afghanistan

Callum brother I’m gonna tell you a little true story,
Back in mid 90’s U.N.W.H came here to these big Buddha’s & said to the locals Hi we are the Civilised White Man we came here to spend over £50 million on polishing up these beautiful statues,
The Locals said Excellent 👌 But
What are you going to do with the war torn Thousands of refugees who live in tents Mud huts opposite the Buddha’s ?
U.N.W.H replied back : Nothing !!
My brother Callum you coming to my country spending millions on Buddha statues While my people are homeless living infront of the statues & you do nothing for them.
Man the Hell with them statues !!
My People My Religion My Country My choice,
Don’t Hate on the Taliban for Blowing up the Buddha Statues No one died.
9.11 Twin Towers & buildings 7 went down in control demolition thousands Died WHO planted that many explosives 🧨 in the towers ?
What I’m trying to say is I don’t mind a statue getting blown up , But when skyscrapers go down at free fall speed & thousands die from control demolition be worried & upset for the right reasons..
thank you 🙏
Great content i watched all ur afgan vids one after the other. I served in iraq and proper muslims are some of the kindest gracious people u cld meet. Keep up good work. If u havent been i would like to see u travel through southern iraq round about basara 👍
I’ve got Iraq videos if you scroll down the video list mate. I will do Basra soon
@@CallumAbroad some man will have a look 👍

Ya funny bugger😂
Is there more from this trip Callum? Seems like an abrupt end to the Afghanistan trip😂
Yes I have more videos dropping on patreon tomorrow
@@CallumAbroad nice one mate!
Love your videos from Iran 🇮🇷👍
❤❤❤❤
They should have boarded it rather than destroying it.
Callum there has been no vlogs from you for a while. Everything ok?
It is shown to be a delicious and nutritious food
Your right Callum it shouldn't have been destroyed. It was unislamic
8.50 theres a face on the rocks
Awesome vlogs pal, thank f@ck you've got balls the size of grapefruits otherwise I wouldn't get to see things like this 👌
Callum brother they Got offered brand new houses the ones who lived there before !!!😊😊😊
Volume is really low, can barely hear you on full pelt on YT
On this video? Unsure why… I had an issue with the previous video due to the sun roof being down in the car for a short time but this video has no audio issues
So insecure in their religion so they have to destroy others
Loving the Afghan bread! Great video, in a really interesting place. Nice to see the Taliban regret (it seems) destroying the statues.
Looked like hard work today. That kebab was well earned.
The talk at the time was they were destroyed because the then government prioritised spending thousands to keep the statues in good working order rather than feed the local population. Whether you believe that or not is another matter.
One thing I will say though is the Taliban do respect ALL religions. One thing they've really hammered home since regaining power.
@@Murtini2023 Omar ordered it to get destroyed cause of the sanctions on Afghanistan, he wanted to prove the hypocrisy of the West that they cared not for the people of Afghanistan and was correct. As he was also correct about the war against NATO and America.
And it was the taliban government who paid for the new houses
Basically some foreigners wanted to preserve it back in 2001 but refused to help the poor in Afghanistan, so mullah umar destroyed it.
It was destroyed by the British (1920s) long before Taliban looked upon it. The bullet riddled statue were more important to the West than the hungry, malnourished mouths of children during the famine, hence the destruction. It was the Wests own "shot in the foot" destruction. Taliban deserves a medal for displaying outstanding principles.
The west uk, america and Nato are the real terrorists calling a people that where fighting injustice and a vile illegal invasion and occupation terrorists. What vile criminals. We Pashtun Afghans born in Europe are always with the Taliban freedom warriors. Salams
Outstanding principles of murder, rape, theft, religious suppression and removal of women from education 🤣🤣They destroyed it out of ignorance and religious reasons and were discussing destroying it MONTHS before a Swedish monuments expert suggested conducting repair work on it. The Taliban have always neglected the hungry, malnourished mouths of children but suddenly they have a change of heart because of an idol?
On 6 March 2001, The Times quoted Omar as stating:
"Muslims should be proud of smashing idols. It has given praise to Allah that we have destroyed them."
"Afghan Foreign Minister Wakil Ahmad Mutawakel stated that the destruction was anything but a retaliation against the international community for economic sanctions: "We are destroying the statues in accordance with Islamic law and it is purely a religious issue." A statement issued by the ministry of religious affairs of the Taliban regime justified the destruction as being in accordance with Islamic law."
How are the malnourished people of Afghanistan currently under the Taliban? How are women under the Taliban?
@@sherlockgnomes8971 struggling considering the world sanctions. So yes, yet again, the IEA are having to make do with what little resource they have in a country that was bombed back to the Middle ages. Taliban should be commended for working for free.
@@sherlockgnomes8971 better then the vile white colonists terrorist war criminals.
I think they were wrong to destroy it
as a Buddhist this is heart aching to see.
Islam forbids this type of destruction. As a Muslim I am sad to see this.
The formation of the statue was as impermanent as your heartache
@@tick999 🤦♂️
@@ch4nfuMuhammad sw broke statues too. Islam prohibits keeping statues no matter what purpose they serve (tourism, history.. doesn't matter). These are orders from god our feelings or opinions don't matter.
@@cookies44205 show me or tell me quotes from the Quran that specify this please.
Because nobody took Care of Them before from the previous government 😊😊😊
Good Job Taliban 👏 Best thing they Did 💯
Hey bro I'm an afghan i live in Canada and watching your videos first of all thanks for visiting the beautiful Afghanistan and , let me tell you something in this video you said too many times taliban destroy the budda sculptures and the temples inside the the mountains please be careful don't say that you'll be trouble they really don't like it , cut it please. have a great time there.
Thanks for checking out the video bro! Really appreciate it. I will keep that in the video tho. I like to be honest in my videos and give my personal opinion. Many of the modern taliban don’t agree that it should have been destroyed. Many of the new taliban told me they just can’t say this publicly or they will get in trouble 😂
Despicable stuff in my opinion mate
Nobody cares for the opinion of sheeps, if you knew the truth of the matter you would be praising the man that ordered the destruction.
their opinion as well, the new taliban members dont agree with the stuff from before.
Exactly. Some people in the comments things they know everything and think they can speak for all Afghans 😂😂 It’s amusing to watch
@@CallumAbroad yo you should go to nuristan and the smalll small province of badakshan, i think you can see 3-4 countries from there(tajikistan,india,china,pakistan) all at once, the view must be breathtaking as well like all of afghanistan
Plaster on a gunshot wound, trying to protect the pieces they destroyed 🤷♂️
Only protecting it because they getting paid
Callum the statues are destroyed which are historical ruins now , however it’s their country so they should be allowed to run it how they want. I like the fact you went to Afghanistan as it is an amazing country for sure one day I love to visit 👍
I appreciate you leaving a comment. I just want to clarify for anyone reading this. I didn’t say how they should run their country, I just said I disagreed with the talibans actions … just like most of the locals disagree to this day 😀
Thanks mate!
@@CallumAbroad Taliban just remove the idols not the building
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇦🇫
Hi Callum. There's an article from an interview with a Taliban spokesman, and published in the New York Times on March 19, 2001 titled "Taliban Explains Buddha Demolition". Basically, there was an organization who wanted to do maintenance work on the Buddhas due to damage from rain and whatnot. The Taliban said they had been sanctioned and also wanted money to go to the poor, as a few hundred children died each week due to malnutrition. The Taliban had felt betrayed because its members had fought against the Soviet Union and were subsequently thrown under the bus by their ally, the USA. So they saw aid to the Buddhas as the West valuing stones over humans and in spite, destroyed the statues. I think if the West had taken different policies, the Taliban would not have destroyed them. But for this reason, I supported them in destroying the statues.
I believe that article was a lie but each to their own and it’s all a game of opinions. The locals of Bamyan are still embarrassed and ashamed that this was destroyed. Some taliban members feel the same way too, they are just too scared to speak out publicly.
What a shame would of been the most interesting thing in theae videos
The West AND people from the West should definitely stop telling other countries what to do, i know that for sure, lol.
Right? It's like they couldn't deal with their own fault and mistakes especially invading people's country for no reason but when it comes to Islam...well enough said.
Let's not forget what they've done to our mosque in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and many others.
They don't practice what they preach too
Totally agree 🤜🏻🤛🏻
That goes both ways then. clown
It could be that you dislike something, when it is good for you; and it could be that you like something when it is bad for you. Allah knows, and you do not know.
Quran 2:216
it shouldn't annoy you at all my friend , their country their way of life their property , as a tourist enjoy and make the most no need for feeling something that has nothing to do with you
I totally disagree with your comment. I am allowed to feel happy, sad, annoyed, angry etc at things I see in the world. I am human. I am simply giving my opinion on how I feel about certain things. I am not telling people how to run their country. If someone from Afghanistan came to the UK and seen people getting drunk at the weekend and doing something they didn’t agree with, I would understand why they would feel a certain way.
I find it ironic your name is “voiceofAfghans” when most of the locals I spoke to felt ashamed and didn’t want it to be destroyed. Do you think they have no right to feel this way too? 💀
Thanks for checking out the videos 😀 It’s appreciated 🤜🏻🤛🏻
@@CallumAbroad were the locals you talked to shia?
@voiceofafghana should be renamed as voice of Pashtuns. Why shouldn’t he be annoyed? Taliban destroyed a whole history and you saying it shouldn’t annoy you. Probably you are righty the blames falls on Pashtuns because they destroyed anything and everything that belonged to Tajiks, Hazaras or Uzbeks in Afghanistan. Don’t try to normalize the brutality they brought upon our people. They have bombed hospitals, education centers etc in the past 20 years. This is very unfortunate if keep turning blind to saddest incidents like bombing of Buddha Statues.
@@yaftali1434 Destroying idols isn't a tribal or ethnic thing, it's the command of Noble Prophet (SAW) of Allah SWT. All Muslims believe in 💥 of statues/idols/sculpture.
@@yaftali1434 who are your people? There are also disbelievers and murtad among your people. So, who do you refer to? We only care about Muslims.
Good job Taliban. Love from Somalia.
Well done to Taliban for destroying these idols. The legend Mullah Umar never gave in to anyone and stuck to his Islam and principles even when the whole world turned against him.
Thanks for checking out the video 😀 Appreciate it 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Bro welcome to Bazaar Sarif Afghanistan bro
I agree but it's mostly because they(the invaders) asking for it, the war. So they got what they deserved. Don't tell me the enemy haven't blown up our Mosque in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and etc in the past. Don't let hypocrites be our downfall because of their voices but let Allah's message and Sharia Law be the judge of that.
@@redhakiim789well said.Shariah law is the most important for Muslims
True, there is no greater harm than shirk (polytheism) as this lands a person in the hell-fire forever. However, the disbelievers would destroy things less harmful than this.
the taliban are not the same as taliban now
I’m being told that regularly. I have been told on numerous occasions that the new taliban members don’t agree with a a lot of stuff from the past etc
@@CallumAbroadyes many taliban currently don’t agree with Mullah Omar and his rule With the way he dealt with things
Some table manners please. Nothing worse than a soup slurper. 🤮
Trust me bro… there’s worse things in life than someone who makes a noise whilst eating hot soup 😂😂
Callum don't have social media
Hitting israel next week booking flight's tomorrow
U in?
That soup may smell good and taste good, but that texture would have made me vomit! Like a big bowl of booger snot. 😅
