Nov 19, 2008 - I heard of the palm and the world before and I can't wait until the finish it. It seems like Dubai is making dreams come true for the "elite" but is it environmentally friendly?

Your hate towards Americans alone show you may be capable of such things! I don't hate you for your views and i apologize if any of my fellow Americans have upset you! To each his own!

Nov 20, 2008 - OMG Dubai is Milton Keynes for the obscenely rich! ;) BTW stop with the hating comments- you people don't even know each other! We all know all rulers of all populations only really care about themselves, that is why they became rulers! And they need you to hate each other because that will justify their positions, their power and your support for them. Remember folks, everyone who has left a comment here, we all have the SAME needs, dreams, hopes, fears and the same short lives Peace+love!

Nov 20, 2008 - Wow. There are millions of archipelagos! And Dubai is home of the only 7 star hotel in the world, Burj Al Alrab. I wanna go there some day. But I bet it costs thousands of dollars. But still, it would be amazing to visit a magnificent place like Dubai. If you've been there, what was it like? I would guess amazing....am I right?

Nov 21, 2008 - this looks pretty amazing, my ONLY complaint is that they could have done a better job shaping the islands to look like the continents, everything but south america looks very misshapen

Nov 22, 2008 - Exactly how I felt.. and I'm agnostic. My boyfriend, as an architecture student, seems to love Dubai for, well obviously its massive projects... I just get a sick feeling in my stomach though...what will the coming years bring? (2008 seems to be a 'brink' year, 2009-2010 may be really telling on which way the world will head)
