S3E49 The Corridor Wars: Israel’s Nuclear Canal vs IMEC | The Real Suez Killer

Welcome to Emerging World Order 2025!!In this episode, we explore the Ben Gurion Canal — a Cold War concept where Israel and the U.S. considered using over 500 nuclear blasts to build a rival to the Suez Canal. We’ll dig into why Israel proposed it, how that idea compares with today’s **IMEC Corridor**, and what chokepoints like Suez and Djibouti tell us about trade and power.We’ll cover:

  • The origin and route of the Ben Gurion Canal
  • The early proposal of the UAE → Haifa Corridor
  • IMEC’s rise as the modern alternative
  • Cost, time, and strategy comparisons
  • Strategic geography: Djibouti, Red Sea, Bab el-Mandeb
  • Concluding whether corridors are about trade, strategy, or control
