Zedstrian,

I get that, but if even the most interesting historical landmark in the world were being operated by a terrorist group, that alone is reason enough to pick another travel destination, in my opinion. Human rights aside, situations such as this demonstrate the safety risks that come with visiting such destinations.

It’s a shame that there hasn’t been extensive political support within Afghanistan itself to oust the Taliban, as I’m sure it would have tremendous tourism potential, given its historical landmarks and central location in Eurasia, if only it were safe to visit.
