In honor of the many Shiite Muslims immigrating there, call it Sheiitestan.

OOps.....darn spellchecker, put too many i's and e's in there.

NO, it works as typed. Take a look at all their Ickystan names, some no one can pronounce.........

So....Sheiitestan works. Well maybe take out the first E, and there is another WINNER. (1st Prize will be a round trip over to cut the ribbon. 2nd prize...one way trip)

Another problem....the country will have that name for the whole island Country of say 100 sq. miles.......BUT how many little "stan" cities will they make of it? ROFL...

Lots of possibilities with naming them all.

Guess I’m the only one who thinks this is a good experiment.. of course we already know the outcome, but I’m fascinated to follow developments. It’ll be a great PBS series until it’s time for the refugees to bump into each other locking/unlocking their doors... and the island has to send the ‘bring out your dead’ trucks for a few rounds every night.

I’m excited to see the desalination plans, solar, cng use, ag irrigation models, hatcheries/fisheries, all the infrastructure design. Guess there will be 3-4 Cruiseliners parked for the initial workers and tourists/volunteers.

Not sure if this is it or not, but cramming 200K would be a trick, unless there were 10 transitional Cruiseliners with 5K aboard each. This terroir is identical to the Texas Hill Country, and they have the same design nightmares in store. Building de-sals and reservoirs and aqueducts and roads will destroy the scenery right off the bat.

Looks perfect to me as it is. I see the perfect spot for Obamas library.

Lots of green vegetation there it seems, well the Ickystan population will take care of that lickity split.

Cram 200K ickystanies in there, don't see a problem. Looks like paradise island for now. They should be grateful. They just need to study Inca architecture.

Don't know why the guy's keeping his chosen island a secret.

What an awesome documentary/reality television/movie location this will be. Dump 200,000 muslim cavemen on a remote island with no escape. No phone, no boat, no motor car, not a single luxury.

After a few years, they'll be one really fat muslim left.

But within 20 minuted of deboarding they will have found the bat caves and be making explosives out of the bat guano, although the PBS narrative will be they’re using it to build cooking fires for the big fish haul the netters provided. After a month or two, weather sats will pick up the explosions on the island.
