    If you’re going to be using nukes like that, you might as well Operation Plowshare yourself a canal directly instead.

    (Sorry in advance if this is too credible.)

      “Operation Glass Cannon”

      EDIT:

      Well, I put my glasses on and looked at the original image again…

      Nuking a canal into… out of… ??? … that section of the Arabian penninsula would have the benefit of not causing the Noachian Deluge Round 2 for all of Iraq.

      So that’s probably a plus, for the nuclear infrastructure engineering plan.
