THE MECCA CLOCK: BIG BEN OR SAURON'S TOWER?



THE SAUDIS BUILT A HUGE CLOCK TOWER IN AN ATTEMPT TO TRY TO MAKE MECCA-TIME AS IMPORTANT AS GREENWICH MEAN TIME.

THEY MIGHT HAVE THOUGHT THEY WERE COPYING BIG BEN, BUT I THINK ANOTHER TOWER IS CLOSER TO THE SPIRIT OF THE STRUCTURE...

SAURON'S TOWER.

Very interesting, but not surprising! There is a great story about how the Brits got the zero meridian to past through London, but to lengthy for me to detail here. I suppose to the true Islamic's everything centers on Mecca.
