Now this…
The Daily Mail reported, via Weasel Zippers:
The crane was owned by the Bin Laden family.
The crane belongs to a German crane company operated by the Bin Laden family’s consortium, who are heading the expansion of the Holy Mosque.
Saudi BinLaden Group was founded by Osama’s Bin Laden’s billionaire father Mohammed and the sprawling construction conglomerate runs a large amount of major building contracts in the Sunni kingdom.
Pictures taken before the disaster show the crane being struck by a bolt of lightning and authorities are in little doubt extreme weather was to blame.
The crane fell into the east side of the mosque, with the top section of the structure crashing into the roof.

Progressives Today called this earlier today—
Does anyone know if the 911 #CraneCrash in #Mecca was a bin Ladin crane? Secretly hoping so, for poetry's sake.
