So the American gov't is going to destroy their own buildings and mess up their economy just so they can spend more money to try to get more oil? That makes sense.

The U.s doesent waste money on military were protecting ourselves from terrorists its better to have one innocent one caught in an explosion then thousands dead.

but at least they dont fly panes into buildings.

@HomeDelsGats "western architects using western science and technology." Western technology from last 200 or 300 years. I bet you did not study science if you had you would have know that muslims are the pioneers of science and mathematics. You blab blab not knowing history. But you should be proud of that Western civilization managed to install poppet regimes many parts of Arabs World.

First, no one Bragged about islam or Arab pride because of this, but we have all the right too even if we didn't build it, little known fact, your Western Technology and knowledge was all taken from what was done in the Middleast many centuries ago, my friend. I suggest you look up "Petra", "hanging gardens of Babylon, and Islamic architecture,these are few examples of the many wonders built by the "uncivilized" muslim/middle easterners.

@HomeDelsGats really? a muslim thing? steriotypical idiot, this represents the 'arabs'. oh and i hope i dont shock you, but there are christian arabs, jews, and any kind of religion. im from lebanon but born in dubai and im quite proud to have this represent the arabs, you and who ever thumbed you up represent jealousy. goodluck

The building is obviously impressive, incredible, but I don't like the design or the oil money it represents, and if I had a few million dollars to buy an apartment anywhere in the world I wouldn't get one in that building! Would become awful riding a 100 story elevator every day and then having to drive miles from the building to get anywhere.

-
i went to dubai when it was almost finished and it was amazing! you could see it for miles!

@ugerWadi Actually they are doing it for PROFIT!!! Its a business. The Prophet was a business man. He used to trade by going to far off lands. If anything i think he will be really proud of how good some people are doing in their businesses.
