Fair point, but that was incompetence rather than malice. The Saudis are extremely competent at gunning down their own citizens if they raise any objections to having their homes bulldozed for their leaders latest vanity project

I can understand why they're doing it - I mean there must be millions of people queuing up to live in a massive tower block thats fallen on its side in the desert.

Correct.

Admittedly thats mostly due to them being scared to say no to the invitation but they are lining up.

Parts of it are laughable - for instance in one instant they’re saying it’s going to be super green and energy efficient and next they’re saying they’re going to have a ski resort….in the desert…!
BUT… I’d say the idea of it is interesting at least, not that I’d ever want to live there.

If they do manage to build it and find the “sort” of people who’d be happy to populate the buildings then perhaps we can have a giant game of domino rally and shove the first one over.
