Where is that located in the world?
Edit: Ah, between Saudi Arabia to the south and Iran to the north, my bad
Diggy hard
Pfft. Why bother with this stupid sea travel bs? We have airplanes, just fly the oil out.
Nah. Planes are too expensive. Let’s just have a giant oil canon that shoots oil in a huge fluid arc from the Middle East to markets.
Hot air balloon and then you can burn the oil as fuel.
It also funnels all the traffic into an even narrower pass that can be easily blocked by a bad actor
Or a good one
Or a bad actor going a good job
Or a good actor doing a bad job
Could a stage hand work in a pinch?
Why would Carrot Top want to block traffic?
Why is it called a Strait with all those curves?!
Because a long, long time ago some Roman dudes though it was a good idea to make that word mean “thin”.
I have a strait peepee
They call me Crassus the Tuna Can.
The musk of victory is upon you
Ah yes, the Never Given
So people fight to control it?
It was easier than saying no homo after Hormuz.
BOOBS Big, make go up, many many dick
I think they were just talking about curves as in the non-sexual sense: The opposite of straight, where the “straight” is as in the non sexual-orientation sense.
Tho if that’s your thing, I can recommend to you the Atlantic Ocean.
I… can never unsee that…
I like the idea that this guy isn’t doing a bit and just treats every 5 year old he meets like a caveman
Operation Plowshare 2: Middle East Boogaloo
But lots of boom boom work.
Looks like Operation Plowshare is back on the menu
The problem is that the map has two more dimensions than the original poster’s mind can think in
You can see time on this map?
Todd just has zero-dimensional takes; they’re (probably) someone else’s and he’s put no thought into repeating them
Its possible but will be super expensive
Just put big scoop on boat
Now if you look at my proposal:
At 50m elevation change it is inline with the Panama Canal or the Canal of Corinth and a length below 600km it should be easy doable.Panama Canal has a natural lake to feed water to the canal locks. Where are you going to get a sufficient water supply for the 50m of elevation in this proposal?
Im sure 2 nation that export lots of fossil fuels will find the energy to pump up ocean water. Nothing could possibly go wrong when pumping salt water inland.
I mean, the ships are coming from the ocean, just tell them to bring some of that water along for the trip.
Now you need to balance the cost of building that vs bombing the shit out of Iran. Manly men like Hegseth know the answer!
Ok, but hear me out: We drop the bombs all along this line instead! Iirc Alaska was planning (or did?) this with nukes 💀
They said ELI5, not ELICaveman
Don’t even worry about canals and all that bs. Just go that way what are they gonna do about it?
Ahh, the Republican tactic
