If you built the world's largest port, maybe.
I've seen bigger clocks.
Stop! Allah time!
Looks like they're trying to mecca some trouble.
But that is a DAMN impressive clock.

We put god everywhere we're not much better.
Pretty cool clock, but it seems like a giant waste of money. Changing the time zones would be too much of a hassle.
That's two hours ahead of GMT. I don't see any purpose in doing this (also I have very fond memories of a child of going to the Royal Observatory and jumping back and forth across the Prime Meridian)
Someone quickly, fly a 757 into that bitch!

Oh, Richard, you're much better at tackling flabby thighs than international relations
[QUOTE=gparent;24034989]Do they even mention how this clock is going to work in the article?[/QUOTE]
The blood of infidels, obviously.
This fucking [i]clock[/i] is going to be taller than the world's second tallest building.
A CLOCK will be the second tallest building in the world.
A MIDDLE EASTERN Clock. That's going to make the top two tallest buildings in the world Middle Eastern. #1 is the UAE #2 Saudi Arabia
Are these guys compensating for something or what? :v:
I don't want any changes of this kind unless we move to decimal clock and calendar :frog:

How would a decimal clock/calendar work? The Earth's rotation/orbit doesn't lend itself to decimalisation.
I bet they will never complete it.

These guys have fortune, but instead of benefiting the poor people who host their nations, they spend it on something as meaningless as this.
Fucking disgusting.
It looks like a Big Ben Ripoff.

Whenever someone builds something big they say they want it to become the world's premiere mall or train station or whatever. It makes sense that the people building a giant clock would say that they want it to be the world's premiere clock.[/QUOTE]
I'm not suggesting any conpsiracies, I'm just remarking how surprisingly affiliated to Islam the clock is.

I hope you felt the same about New Orleans after Katrina. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt and not just jumping straight to calling you a hypocrite because I'm in an oddly good mood right now.
Now that mecca has a box and a clock, wwe can rate them boxes and clocks.
:downs:

It's a pretty cool box though.

The blueprints will come in a book and they'll use wrenches to build it and the supplies will come on pallets

Nah, Saudi is an enemy of Israel thus giving him reason to complain.
