Prior to the US occupation, under the Taliban regime, but yes, these were remnants of the previous Hindu-Buddhist civilization of the region.

“Thus the destruction of the Twin Buddha’s during the Iraq War period under US Occupation.... Humm?”

Your one sentence is so full of error and slander it takes several paragraphs to correct.

-The destruction of the Buddhas of Bamiya occured in Afghanistan in 2001, pre-Iraq invasion of 2003.

-It was done by the Pushtan (Deobandi Islamic fundamentalist) Taliban, not by Iraqi Sunni Saddamists.

“The tragic destruction of the Buddhas of Bamiyan in March 2001, which was broadcast across the globe, led to a global recognition of the need to protect cultural heritage at risk.”
