The correct answer is Buddhas of Bamiyan. They were mined by the Taliban government because they were declared to be idols and this went against iconoclasm, which was about preventing depiction of religious people as idols. They stated that the statues were getting foreign aid while the people were starving and that it was a travesty.

Describe the wave power of the December 26th 2004 tsunami
LekaFEV [45]

Answer: The December 26, 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami was caused by an earthquake that is thought to have had the energy of 23,000 Hiroshima-type atomic bombs. ... Within hours of the earthquake, killer waves radiating from the epicenter slammed into the coastlines of 11 countries, damaging countries from east Africa to Thailand.

The high of the wave in 2004 tsunami was 100 feet

Explanation: For an earthquake-generated tsunami, the wavelength generally reaches a few hundred kilometres if the concerned fault is long. For the 2004 Sumatra earthquake, the wavelength is estimated, from the first wave measured by the Jason-1 satellite altimeter, as around 500–600 km (Gower 2005).

The Cuban Missile Crisis was over photographs taken by a U-2 spy plane of missile launching pads being built in Cuba.
Inga [223]

Well, kind of?

But I'd go with False.

The Cuban Missile Crisis was started by the photographs taken by the U-2 spy plane but the real issue was that Cuba was building missile launching pads and the Soviet Union was supplying them with those missiles.

The US ended up blockading Cuba to keep the Soviet ships from arriving in Cuba.
