Mother Nature's way of telling em that she doesn't like concrete and they *ucked up.

They owe the foreign workers who built their city a few years ago billions. They will need them back to do the clean up, such workers should demand payment up front.

To everyone saying drainage system is too expensive so they use special tank vehicles. THIS IS DUBAI. They got ski resort in the mall. It's about priorities, not money. They organized EXPO. Paid the elite architects to show how SMART they are. They totally lost their own game.

I just wanted to say that If you have suicidal thoughts, mental trauma, PTSD or anything Just know. You have a purpose you are beautiful, kind, just be yourself and go after what you want to do. You are amazing, you got this, and things will get better in your life, you will do great things, and so many people like your family and I are proud of you and love you dearly. Your future is bigger than your past and your past does not define you are awesome and a warrior. Don’t hate yourself simply because of your past, forgive yourself, love yourself no matter what because you deserve the world and the great things in it. Things we’ll get better in your life. You are the light of the world. Stay safe. 💪🏽❤️. Have a beautiful day

We got thousands of miles of land .....Lets build some islands in the sea...clown world personified

Now they will understand how to live without clean water, electricity and food. God is reminding them... They didnt helped the people in need in a nearby country... So its a moment to think about it
