It’s not. This has been proposed multiple times throughout history. The U.S. program, named Project Plowshare, was active from the late 1950s to the 1970s and explored various peaceful applications for nuclear explosives. It was built on ideas from older, British and German plans. The Russians also had their own plans. This is not a new idea.
Don’t a bunch of the Arab states make like extravagant man made islands and epic waterways? And they can’t find the resources to build this waterway through a couple mountains?
But once we get approval to for thermonuclear detonations in the middle east, we can modify the plan. We don’t need to dig a new canal if we just blow up any Iranian sites capable of attacking ships in the strait.

Where, in OP’s post, does it claim this is a new idea?

Unfortunately, it would still be in close proximity to Iran and well within attack distance, so it would be completely pointless.

So make it a tunnel!
