\nThe Ben Gurion Canal. As Israel intensifies its Gaza onslaught, focus turns to the controversial Ben Gurion Canal project, named after its founding father, David Ben Gurion. Originally proposed in the 1960s as an alternative to the Suez Canal by connecting the Red Sea to the Mediterranean Sea through the southern end of the Gulf of Aqaba. The route was planned via the port city of Eilat and the Jordanian border through the Arabah valley between the Negev mountains and the Jordanian highlands and veered west before the Dead Sea basin and heading through a valley in the Negev Mountain. It would then head north again to circumvent the Gaza Strip and connect to the Mediterranean Sea. There have been alleged plans to literally cut the Palestinian enclave from the middle to take the shortest route. Israel’s desire to evacuate Gaza should be seen in this way, as the presence of Palestinians there would remain an obstacle\u2026<\/p>\n
