Trump building enormous Buck Rogers era rocketship in Dubai

trumpdubai.jpg

With the developers in Dubai constantly looking for new ways to spend their massive piles of petro dollars, it was only a matter of time before The Donald started poking his nose in. Looking like something from a 1950s science fiction movie, the Trump International Hotel and Tower might have seemed obscenely garish in his New York City home turf, but looks right at home in wild and crazy Dubai. Completion is due in 2009.

From what I hear they want to switch the base of their economy to tourism before the oil wells run dry, so they do everything big. What else would you expect from the place that decided that since they were running out of beach front property, they should build the world's largest man made island, then build a larger one, then build an even larger one, and then build the world's largest man made archipelago.

It's so ironic. That part of the world hates the West for being opulent, and yet Dubai has become the poster child for opulence. Nuke 'em now!

Not every country in the middle east hates America. Also, it is also typical arrogance to assume all the investment in Dubai comes from the US. Not doing much to remove the anti-US dogma with comments like that are ya?

Man this guy is every where. I wonder why he is not leading US Gov. He has so much power so much money.
