Saudi Arabia Plans World’S Tallest Tower

[BuckarooBanzai]

Saudi Arabia’s Prince Alwaleed bin Talal’s investment vehicle, Kingdom Holding, has announced that an associate company will partner with the country’s Bin Laden Group to build a tower near Jeddah that would replace Dubai’s 828m Burj Khalifa as the world’s tallest building.

I find this did not make my day - although it does really puzzle me, and is certainly no joke. Maybe the Bin Ladens should dedicate their share to their relative's victims in what was once the tallest structure?
