yes, ......... through 'friendly' territory

      Instead of fighting over a 21-mile-wide bottleneck forever, we cut a new channel through friendly territory. A dozen thermonuclear detonations and you’ve got a waterway wider than the Panama Canal, deeper than the Suez, and safe from Iranian attacks.

That is an idea which has been knocked around for a long time - like draining the Mediterranean - and not unexpected for Newt, a well-known crackpot.

Trump can do this in 24 hours with US nuclear power of the greatest military. Or maybe 1 week or several.  A deal can be done in say three weeks with perfect phone calls.  Could be a month. Or two.
