Spain, Morocco To Build Undersea Rail Tunnels

Posted by timothy on from the chunupmanship dept.

DoraLives writes "The BBC reports that Spain and Morocco 'have agreed to build a 39-kilometre rail tunnel beneath the Mediterranean Sea, to link Europe and Africa.' and that 'This plan could be put into action as early as next year...' Fairly daunting technical piece of work should they attempt it, but the prospect of an all-rail trip from Edinburgh to Tangiers is intriguing to say the least."

      I don't see why this was moded down, it does hold a ring of truth. There really isn't much benifit for linking Spain and Moroco, they already swim over in rafts every night.

    There is something wrong with what you said. 'We got Saddam'. Oh, you were there, were you? Had a gun in your little baby hands? Risked your life, left your family at home? Listen you little dipshit, THEY got Saddam! The people with more guts than you'll ever have. You had nothing to do with it whatsoever, absolutely nothing. Do you think you can include yourself by saying 'we' just because you're on the same side? Because you believe in what they believe in? Makes you feel good? You are nothing and nowhere. Keep you little fantasy outburst to yourself.

    Not to be a wet blanket here but doesn't Morocco have issues with terrorism? Like, a LOT of them? Seriously, this tunnel just sounds like the ultimate target for these whacko groups.

    They'd better have a lot of security/protection and check those SHOES!

    Easy, slavery is still common in parts of Africa. Nothing better than free labour to bring costs of a construction project down.
