New Tower of Babel

Today the world's tallest building officially opened.

It's interesting that it happens to be in Dubai.

It's interesting that a few weeks ago the government of Dubai would have defaulted and gone bankrupt had a rich Arab not stepped in and propped the government up.

It's interesting that the building is now named after that rich Arab gentleman.

It's interesting that this building is in the heart of the land that is run by the descendants of Ishmael.

It's interesting that the Tower of Babel was built in the country now known as Iraq.

It's interesting to wonder about how long this building may stand.
