Rising from the sea of Qutar's captical Doha is a 15-billion-dollar city that will eventually be home to 40,000 people. It's called the Pearl, and it's built on 500 hectare s of land reclaimed from the ocean.

  • @TheTurbinator the us also forgot what it means to be american

  • Qatar, along with all the oil countries around there, need to be raped by the USA. They forgot what it means to be Muslim a very long time ago, when the money started rolling in to their pockets faster then they could spend it.
