What would happen if an Al Qaeda flew a jet into the Burj Khalifa tower?

Hasn’t Al Qaeda been killing Muslims in Iraq for years now?

Not to mention killing Muslims in Algeria, and Tanzania, and doubtless many others elsewhere.

You pick up on it - ALL of you - because it amuses you and enables you to think of yourselves as sophisticated. Why not, after all? Your small-minded “heroes” evidently think that low-brow insults are a good way ofmarginalizing them.

I, as usual, find the puffed-up self image of leftists congratulating themselves on their elegance while naming their political opponents in such a manner… amusing.

Your amusement will be more apparent if you wipe the froth off your mouth.

The head structural engineer at SOM gave a talk at my school about the building and addressed the question of a plane flying into it. He basically said that it’s impossible to design against unless you’re building a bunker. You can have measures to delay collapse or protect occupants, but the building’s fucked.

What if Mossad hijacked an airplane and few it into the Burj Khalifa? Well, if I’m correct in thinking that Mossad is Israeli Intelligence, then I could see a new wave of anti-American sentiment from the Muslim world, for the simple reason that the U. S. is an ally of Israel.

Or maybe I’m mistaken about Mossad…

According to many in the Muslim world, Mossad already hijacked airplanes and flew them into the World Trade Center.

If somebody described 9/11 that way, he’d have been Pitted about eight times already. There are people in that “useless piece of phallic architecture”, you know.

Not the Burj Khalifa. Reminds me of that old joke about people at Walmart, “nobody’s missing work.”

According to a recent West Point report, 85% of Al Qaeda’s victims are Muslim.
