Dubai - Fireworks greet tallest skyscraper

Gebäude | Informationen | Videos | Emirates | Aussicht

1. id rather have a strong standing military than some tall buildings. btw, dubai couldnt even afford to pay the multibillion dollar interest on this thing so they had to get bailed out by their rich buddies in abu dahbi. looks like they're advancing real well over there
2. @scris4u If Bin Laden was, let's say. A European Guy, Who thinks and acts exactly like Bin Laden. Would you Have changed your point of view about Arabs.? Let me tell you. Not all Arabs are the same. And I guess, your point of view wouldn't have changed even if The Terrorist wasn't Arab. That's because you're a racist. 
3. I LIKE UAE (DUBAI) ITS A REAL ARAB COUNTRY...
4. watch?v=RS1jTKrT2gI
5. @Beccapoo2003 because abu dhabi had to pay for the rest of the construction..ran out of cash so they had to name it after some guy called khalifa in abu dhabi
6. Fire bursting from a building is usually a bad thing.
7. season greeting
8. wow thats tall, think they might be compensating for something though! lol
9. Dubai, where all your dreams come true. Lol.
10. Ummm didnt the Dubai stock market lose something like 80% of it's value last year? Dubai was victim to one of the biggest real estate bubbles ever created.
11. @espada1ulqiorra cause your government still thinks its 630 AD.
12. @vrgnmndrn don't start arguing, if war is better than building a building, in what way there is building a that tower with borrowed money or what money there is, it is better then spending it on weapons or war prick,
13. wht?
14. why cant the US do that...:/ ????
15. I'm behind you my friend. Guess what folks, I pay taxes and the yankees spend my hard earned tax dollars on flexing their muscles on weapons while the rest of the wrold builds their infractructure and advance as a society. Sad to see the US fall, but it IS and WILL in the very near future if it continues this way.
16. Ya, except, the US spends its BORROWED money on war, and Dubai builds the worlds tallest building with CASH!
17. ya ret law kano al mohandesen 3arab 3ashan neft7`er ,
18. @rextz My reply was directed at you, however, "some guy" is Riikyj. Riikyj is right in his proposition that Arabs had great knowledge, well beyond that of Europe in many areas, in the years before Islam. As much as the Catholic church hindered scientific advancements, too an even higher degree did Islam. I one thinks one already has the whole truth, there's no reason to go look for alternative explanations, is there?
19. @Proud2beEmarati The problem is that you're building it with other people's money, on a loan you had to be bailed out on. Sorry, I'm not impressed.
20. @rextz I neither have nor will make that argument. I was responding to some guy who wanted to take credit for all modern, western inventions, on the basis that mathematics, as we know it, had its origins in the Arabic world. However, I did postulate that few news have come out of that part of the world since Islam scourged it.
