I do not like this project at all. The leaders must be too busy playing buy the European prostitutes to pay any attention to the real designs.

Actually Saudi Arabia is mostly building this because of the near by Holy-Sites. Oil really only affects a small portion of this project and the design was probably not easy to come up with since it had to be fitted to the surrounding area and the clock is a wonderful idea so pilgrims know what time ceremonies start and what time it is in a city that has watches/clocks in some areas.
