Anonymous Coward User ID: 31149049 United States 02/06/2013 07:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Burj Khalifa stands as the World’s tallest building with an unimaginable height of 828 meters. But the Kingdom Tower will take the title soon with the height of 1000 meters. The tower is being constructed along the Red Sea in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The person to construct the next wonder is none other than Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, the wealthiest Arab of Middle East. He is also the CEO of Kingdom Holding Company (KHC). According to news, the new Kingdom city will be located along the Red Sea on the north side of Jeddah, and to construct it, the Kingdom Tower is the first phase. The whole project would be summing up a net cost of around 20 Billion US Dollars. Among which the 1.2 Billion Dollar would be spent on Tower.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 801546 United States 02/06/2013 10:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yeah surely it was no longer "there money" when they spent it.. You can't buy something and say the money is still yours! My thoughts exactly when I read his ignorant comment. He says "our" money, as if the fact that he lives in the United States, a country that imports oil from Saudi Arabia, means the tower being built has anything to do with him.... |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 801546 United States 02/06/2013 10:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What good will all these fancy buildings be when the their oil is finally depleted ? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 25007705 Depends. A lot depends on what happens in the next 100 years, something we ALL speculate on, but none of us really know... The same could be said for anything being built in the US. What good is it, when our country is bankrupt, and our economy might very likely collapse in the next few years.... If the US economy collapses, then much of the Western world will be hit too. Much of the western world's economy is tied directly to the US economy. Much of the ENTIRE WORLDS economy is, but the western world more so. If we all fall, who knows how appealing Saudia Arabia might be in the next decade. Sure, oil is what makes them the big bucks right now.... but things can change in the blink of an eye. If they have a higher standard of living then we do, if a collapse happens, all of a sudden their dollar might be worth far more than ours. It might be stable over there, in turn causing more people to invest there, in turn causing their economy to bloom, etc. |

[link to realitypod.com] Quoting: JUST HERE That is being built on sand? Arabia is doing a lot of this in the ocean, because theyare coming to the end of their oil, and thus are now dumping their entire wealth into the tourist trade. In other words: "Putting all their eggs in one (dumb) basket" The Bible warns you to not build on sand. Israel is trying to corner the market on the tourist trade, and after they get finished with Arabia with the HAARP, the whole place will be a swamp. Here is some more: Meet the richest Country in the world w/its bridges of sand on lands of sand. Alas alas alas : [link to www.youtube.com] Hereis why all people and religions should learn the Bible, because there are many warnings in it: Luke 6:48 “He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.” Numbers 24:21 “And he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is thy dwellingplace, and thou puttest thy nest in a rock.” Arabia did not. Matthew 7:24 “Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock“: Arabia isnot “wise“ Matthew 7:25 “And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.” Arabia will fall. Deuteronomy 32:13 “He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock: Arabia, alas. Deuteronomy 32:15 “But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.”: Arabia, alas. Deuteronomy 32:18 “Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.” Arabia, alas. Proverbs 30:26: The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks Deuteronomy 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. Arabia, nee. |
