Since 1989 the treasures in Afghanistan's National Museum in Kabul have been at risk. From war, from looting, and also from the Taliban who destroyed many works which they saw as un-Islamic. Yahya Muhibzada was acting director of the Museum in 2001 when he was forced to look on helplessly as Taliban officials destroyed statues.
