    There was a conspiracy theory that showed a proposed canal that will go right through Gaza (the Ben Gurion canal) that seeks to divert some of the traffic from the Suez canal.

      That seems pretty bonkers, with the barest minimum knowledge of geography.

      Like, look at a map level of bonkers.

        Not too bonkers - if you cut through Gaza, run south, between Beersheba and the Egyptian border and continue in a straight line parallel to the border you hit the Gulf of Aqaba.

          That would be like 100 miles / 200 km

            Okay. That’s less than 10% of the distance across the Mediterranean.
