 iJoining its near neighbours in the development of prestigious retail, leisure and entertainment destinations is Iraq, with its Karbala Oasis development.

The project, in Karbala City, 90km from Baghdad will occupy an area of 222,873sq.m with a leasable area of over 71,000sq.m and is hoping to capitalise on the opportunities offered by the improving Iraqi economy. A recent report claimed the economy will expand by 1.5 per cent this year and go on to grow by 4.5 per cent in 2019, stimulating the country’s non-oil economy and proving a boost to consumer spending.

The US$65m development will see a four-level mall split into five areas: Shopping Oasis, Food Oasis, Fun Oasis, History Oasis and Residence Oasis. It will also be home to a five-Star Hotel with 12 Suites and 98 Rooms.

The group behind the project, Dubai-based Oasis Investment Group will be presenting its plans at the upcoming Smart Stores Expo, devoted to showcasing the latest trends, developments and technologies shaping the future of retail from September 4 – 6 at the Dubai International Exhibition and Convention Centre.

Mr. Haitham Al Mayali, CEO, Karbala Oasis Investment Group, said, “We have envisioned Karbala Oasis to provide Iraq a prominent place on the region’s shopping map.  The massive retail complex will feature an incredible range of modern retail spaces with jaw-dropping design elements, teeming with the right features to help retailers showcase their brands and provide one-of-a-kind shopping experience to their customers.  With the retail market in Iraq growing, I believe that Karbala Oasis is the most exciting retail opportunity on this part of the globe.  We are pleased that Smart Stores Expo is here to help us introduce this extraordinary opportunity to the retail market.”

Must be planning on plenty of people having purchasing power‼️ Around where I live we’ve had malls closing down..... and we purchase in dollars..... so maybe they expect people’s dinar will be valuable enough to spend at the food court and build-a-camel (There version of build-a-bear) 😂

Just curious if you would happen to know where in Scripture it talks about Babylon in the end times? 

 

Thanks

Revelation 18:10 speaks of Babylon

 

Revelation 18:10-19 King James Version (KJV)

¹⁰ Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

¹¹ And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:

¹² The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,

¹³ And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.

¹⁴ And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.

¹⁵ The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,

¹⁶ And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!

¹⁷ For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,

¹⁸ And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!

¹⁹ And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

Hmmm, sounds like they are talking about it falling, not rising. 

Thats why they weep, no more cinnamon and spice.

As well Botz, thanks for kicking in here as well, very much appreciated 🙏

I just wanted to reply here this Babylon that’s in Iraq 🇮🇶 is not the same as , the Babylon that’s spoken off in Rev 18 . 

The old Babylon fell in 607 BCE . That’s the one in Iraq 🇮🇶. Revelation 17:18 talks about god put a thought into the heart of the leaders of the nations to turn on the modern day Babylon the great , it is a world Empire of false Religion 

you can find it in chapter 18 -19 -20 I don’t usually talk biblical things here on the Dv site but I talk truthful things sense the subject came up . When Adam started this site ,I don’t think he wanted to get into these thing.
