Holac Posted April 13, 2018 Not content with an economic and diplomatic blockade, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) has revealed a project for a canal that would physically cut off the peninsular Qataris from the Arabian mainland. To add insult to geopolitical injury, the plan also calls for a Saudi military base and nuclear waste dump—on the Qatari side of the canal. Dubbed the ‘Salwa Canal’, the project is to be funded entirely by private investors from the KSA and UAE and executed by Egyptian firms, building on their experience widening the Suez Canal. http://bigthink.com/strange-maps/saudis-threaten-to-turn-qatar-into-an-island Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
