Yep and it would last a 100 years.

Carter did the right thing.

Carter did the right thing? Are you kidding me? Carter was concentrated stupid. I never thought we would have another such ignorant fool, and then Obama came along and surpassed stupid Jimmy.

Carter thought he could solve the Arab-Israeli conflict by creating a Palestinian homeland.

The best suggestion I recall from that period was to dig a big moat on our southern border (to stop illegal immigration), and use the dirt to create an island which would become the Palestinian homeland.

How we would do it today.

I actually recall some consideration of using nukes and shaped charge technology to create a sea level canal.

Your post is so nonsensical to me I must conclude that I am understanding it wrong.

when the traitor Carter gave away the Canal no one was dying from building it. those days were long past.

“The Pacific side sea level is about 20 centimeters (8-inches) higher than that of the Atlantic side due to differences in ocean conditions such as water densities and weather conditions.”
