No, it's not true. There have been many cities built upon Babylon just like Mexico City and Jerusalem.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babylon:
In 1985 Saddam Hussein started rebuilding the city on top of the old ruins, using millions on part restoration, part new construction, to the dismay of archaeologists, with his name inscribed on many of the bricks, in imitation of Nebuchadnezzar.
And...
US forces were criticised for building a helipad on ancient Babylonian ruins following the 2003 invasion of Iraq, under the command of General James T. Conway of the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force.

No, that's not true. Like Damascus, the prophecy of the total destruction of Babylon has not happened yet.

No. Where did you get this? Bablylon is a place. A place known today as Iraq. There are many buildings there, probably many more that will be build there in the future.

I never heard that one. I'll be interested to know, as well. To my knowledge, no one knows the exact site.
