Yes, islam's heritage produces alot of rubble.

I can't believe some idiot said that. Sounds like some multi-cultural professor.

"If you go to German cities nowadays, it's all reconstructed," [Gruen] said.

Professor Gruen isn't quite right.

There is still the bombed-out Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedächtnis-Kirche in the center of Berlin to remind Germans of the terrible consequences of the war that had to be fought against Naziism.

So there is a precedent for this idea. But OTOH, leaving the Buddhas destroyed would probably be the wrong message to send the Taliban.
