Middle East could be a new Elysium / Eden if it had more canals and artificial rivers.
>>
Because Brownoids are afraid of water (e.g. showers, baths)

and who will fund diggings of 1000km canal through empty desert?
>>
>>219824163
Literally wouldn't work and why would you build it anyways?
>>
>>219824199
Jews, ofc.

Forget about the whole "Thicc Israel" part, just for agriculture, tourism and climate along, turning that desert-hole into an oasis would be amazing.

And because of the war and the destruction of desalination plants, now people need even more fresh clean water.
>>
>>219824237
dunno jews lately only destroy various installations, not build it

Oil Arabs tried a few mega-projects already, they just always end up as failures because money can't buy intelligence
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Line,_Saudi_Arabia
>>
>>219824237
a lot of the rivers in that region are tapped out, farmers pull all the water they're allowed already, and desalination is still incredibly expensive, I forget the exact number but iirc it's cheaper to pump fresh water like +1000 km than it is to desalinate water locally
Iran went ape building dams and doing water management during the 20th century, and that ended up triggering some ecological issues, I think they flooded an area that had a lot of salts and minerals that started dissolving into the water, so they turned a river into a salt lake that can't be used for anything

one of the reasons that megaprojects take so long and got so expensive is because of all the gay environmental studies and management you have to do, but if you skip that you'll find out that you irreversibly fucked up your ecosystem in 50 years when there's nothing you can do to fix it
>>
>>219824163
why do you want canals and rivers full of salt water?
>>
>>219824358
I know about this porject, if you check how it was originally (NEOM), it had the sizes of Kuwait.

The thing is 'The Line' could have work as a mega-river instead of that retarded city and make Arabia more green and livable.

The irony of Arabia having Islam as its official religion and for once that Islam has the right purposes: austerity, anti-idolatry, etc. And arabs don't pay attention to that part.

Good question.
I thought about one these variations last week to see if i can benefit my country, to dig an additional channel so ships can pay israel money instead of egypt. The issue is not only distance anon, it's elevation. Much of israel as well as the middle east is filled with mountains making such a project so insanely costly that even if all of this area was controlled be a single peaceful country like switzerland, no one would want to invest however astronomical amount of money to dig a direct channel from kuweit to Mediterranean sea it because it's not likely they will make it back.. If i am a cargo company owners i am looking for the cheapest and safest option, yeah you might save me 2-3 days in ship travel, but if it costs me more, no point in picking you channel. Currently it takes a tanker 5-6 days to reach the Suez canal. So how much money will it save me?
>>
Oil browns waste gigatons of money all the time constantly anyway. might as well try to build economically infeasible canals, it's probably more worth a try than other stupid shits they do.
>>
>>219824367
Don't get me wrong, I don't want to ruin the ecosystem even more that it's already. I just think it would be cool to see a green Middle East and by doing that make the ecosystem be better, not worst.
>>
>>219824425
But your point was: "Why people refuse to do megaprojects?". I remember some of the tiny Arab petro-states did something equally retarded and tried to build an artificial island in the Persian gulf, it ended up the same as the Line. Really makes you think how come that some people go to university and graduate with PhDs just to earn nothing, meanwhile some double digit IQ inbred retard in Riyadh or Dubai is wasting dozens of billions of USD on projects designed by Teletubbies

digging canals doesn't increase the rain genius
all this shit is next to the ocean and is a fucking desert
>>
>>219824416
Apparently even with salt rivers you can turn deserts into oasis:
>blue carbon: re-flooding former agricultural land with seawater can transform degraded soil into productive salt marshes within a short period, and boosts biodiversity;

>mineralization: enhanced weathering, helps rivers capture more from the atmosphere and transport it to the ocean for long-term storage;

>mangroves: unique trees that thrive in saltwater, filtering out 90% of it, and are vital for coastal protection, help giving desertic land the first capes of biomasa that turn soil from sterile to fertile.

I think it's worth it.

there's been a lot of work on greening deserts these last few decades, and they all go with a "help plants get started on the fringes and then in a century or two things will be greener"

>>219824494
the gulf states know that time is ticking, at some point demand for oil will drop, and they'll go back to being camel herders living in tents, since they don't have any other natural resources
Dubai is the UAE's attempt at preparing for that, their logic is "eventually the oil will run out but all these buildings will still be here, and we can lean really heavily on tourism" which is probably a smart decision given they're basically a microstate with no comparative advantages other than oil

That's the original claim that you did not like, btw. In fact, when the canal was built nobody even asked Ottoman permission, they went straight to the local Egyptian

spain controlled central america for like 3 centuries and never built either the panama canal, nor the nicaragua canal, both microscopic projects compared to building a shitload of canals through the middle east
it wasn't until 150 years ago that mining techniques and construction materials made it viable, and even then costs are still super high
the danube had a delta that made it a pain to navigate so they built a 40km. long canal to better connect it to the black sea only in the 1940s, and they had to use a bunch of forced labor
the russians and americans built massive railway networks also using a ton of forced labor... we may want to bring back slavery if we want to get shit done tbqh, it's no surprise the gulf states hire shitloads of indians for this stuff

Well, Turkey owned all those arab lands (except Egypt) until 1918, AFTER the Industrial Revolution; Spain that lost all of its american lands a century before (around 1818), BEFORE the Industrial Revolution.

It's not the same.

yeah
I think the spanish surveyed the area and considered a canal but realized the engineering was insane, then the french attempted it but couldn't pull it off, and then the americans struggled a bunch but eventually succeeded
doing what OP wants would be 10,000x harder, and with very little economic incentive too, panama and the danube at least handle shitloads of trade, and they charge massive tolls to make it worth it, OP's plan would cost several trillions and at the end you just have some greenery, absolutely no government would approve this, those trillions could be used for something with better return on investment, like buying a lot of pedo islands

Follow the Primordial Truth, whitebro, create your own morality and impose it to them.

>>219826158
The problem with that is that animals and plants will suffer, browns follow abrahamism (hate of Nature: kosher / halal food, dog-hating, cutting pagan trees and burning sacred forests, etc; abuse of innocents: circumcision and metzitzá b'peh), we (whites) love Nature and protect the innocent.

Let Nature and innocents suffer is anti-white.

Brother, I do encourage you to look at the terrain in that stretch between Al-Hamidiyya and Homs. It is only 42 miles long (less than half of the distance across the planned Nicaragua Canal) and seems to be relatively flat in comparison to much of the East Mediterranean coast. From Homs onwards it's mostly flatland, so it should not be too troublesome to build a canal roughly parallel to the River Euphrates.
>>219824629
It may not necessarily increase rain, but it would certainly give alternatives to choking points like the Strait of Hormuz.

Because most of these make no sense economically.
There is perfectly fine sea lane between the gulf and the med and it's usable 99% of the time.
Why build an expensive magaproject just for that 1% of the time Iran and America are in all out war?
You're better off spending that money stockpiling gas/oil.
