Look, I don’t like every view he holds, but he works across the aisle.
“Yes, we’re irradiated now, but gas is under $3/gal.”
Well it would be Dubai and the Saudis that would be irradiated. They should be fine with it right?
the gas would likely be irradiated too. I heard of an early proposal to detonate nukes deep underground in the tar sands to bring the oil to the top, theoretically it would work but radioactive oil.
Not irradiated! It’s been treated with Shell Atomic Boost!
Just look for the glowing pump.
This is the talent McDonald’s marketing needs.
You mean my cars get free nuke juice? Why aren’t we doing this again?
fuck them saudis and their sportswashing
That would guarantee a bright future for Dubai
Less than that. They’d have to sell this particular gas at a discount, considering it would be radioactive after making this detour.
You’re forgetting the power of marketing. Call it “Atomic Premium”, claim it’s formulated specifically for giant trucks with fake balls attached to the hitch, get a few hick-hop artists to name drop it in songs about cruising down red dirt roads, and run a meme campaign implying only woke blue-haired lib trannies with nose rings oppose irradiated gas. They’d drink it if they thought doing so would “own the libs”.
The transported good would not be radioactive after the journey, though I can’t say the same for the vessel
Nah, both carbon and hydrogen can absorb neutrons just fine,
The
geiger counterDow will be over 50,000!Well, not Americans, but brown people halfway across the world would be. But they’re not people to Americans so who cares.
How bad would the radiation actually be?
How bad can it possibly be? It’s only being held apart by a screwdriver
We put this man in charge of one of our branches of government. Let that sink in.
Is newt Gingrich even still alive
Edit: holy shit he actually tweeted that. It was so outlandish I just assumed it was fake.
Same
It’s not. This has been proposed multiple times throughout history. The U.S. program, named Project Plowshare, was active from the late 1950s to the 1970s and explored various peaceful applications for nuclear explosives. It was built on ideas from older, British and German plans. The Russians also had their own plans. This is not a new idea.
Newt is not a new man
Newman!
Where, in OP’s post, does it claim this is a new idea?
Don’t a bunch of the Arab states make like extravagant man made islands and epic waterways? And they can’t find the resources to build this waterway through a couple mountains?
Unfortunately, it would still be in close proximity to Iran and well within attack distance, so it would be completely pointless.
So make it a tunnel!
But once we get approval to for thermonuclear detonations in the middle east, we can modify the plan. We don’t need to dig a new canal if we just blow up any Iranian sites capable of attacking ships in the strait.
Those are the quality/skilled Arabs. These people are not that.

just a couple of nuclear detonations!
Tell me your mentally removed without saying the words
Tell me you have no idea about nuclear bombs, not the radiation, not the capabilities, nothing, without saying those words
Tell me you’re the dumbest fuck in class without saying the words
This can’t be a real tweet, right?
Maybe he read the Arthur C. Clarke book where they used a super computer to figure out where to detonate nukes underground along fault lines to prevent a mega earthquake?
Doesn’t seem the reading type.
antiwoke, or asleep as I like to call them
Comatose
The key here is that you have to personally supervise the first explosion real close up to make sure the channels are correct. I had chatgpt design a special hard hard for you Mr Gangrinhch, so it’s got mondo safety parameters to keep you fit as a whistle
The biggest surprise for me is that he is still alive
For those who don’t know about it, Project Plowshare was a cold war project where the US investigating the use of nuclear weapons for geo engineering projects.
Here is a WTYP Podcast episode about it:
Neocons doing material analysis.
Eww.
I had to check and this dipshit is still alive.
Can we not have anything nice around here?
What a goddamned fucking idiot.
How much you wanna bet he called Trump and personally made this fucking deranged suggestion to him?
I thought this motherfucker was dead.
I mean it’s such a braindead take that he might as well be
