Solving Hormuz issues

If I go to Hormuz with some digging equipment and dig a channel trough Dubai, will I have solved the oil crisis?

It's all sand afterall, ain't it?

My brother teaches Spanish. He knows probably. I don't.

Er, no. A good deal of it is challenging mountainous terrain. Sorry to disappoint you.

Rocks are compressed sand, so we relax them a bit. Let them decompress, then dig them away.

Sounds like a flawless plan. Should only take a few million years for the mountains to "decompress"... 😊

better solution: just dig a ditch and make an oil river

I love that... You can also save on oil usage too... And you don't even need the boats to carry it...

Wait, what if we enclose that ditch like, with a cover, something round around it, like to keep it from being diluted by rain or evaporated by sun?

Like a tunnel, or a pipe ...

What are you saying ?? Trump's commissioned the Pentagon bomber fleets for that sand ⏳, and you intend to solve the oil crisis simply with your digging equipment ??🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

I have a shovel, a very good one. In fact, I know more about shovels than anybody else .
