That would be my expectation as well, and I don’t know a thing about concrete.

In any shooting war with China, all we would need to do is hit the dam with one single ball-peen hammer and the war would be over.

destroy major cities such as Wuhan

Oh crap. They lost control of one of their weaponized bugs when everything was functioning and dry. Imagine what would happen if the dam breaks.

Lord, send Your mercy upon the Chinese people — and Your justice upon their evil communist rulers!

Amen.

I’m glad we went ahead and ordered a fridge from Loews...I can already see shortages on appliances from major box stores.

UHMMM. You notice something strange about that photo?

Take a look at the color of the water. Unless thats an older photo, that water should be BROWN.

BTW..the shadow on the water from the dam...its distorted also!

I have to agree with you on that particular photo.

But somewhere, I have seen photos of the thing from the side looking right down it and it doesnt look good.

There were reports somewhere the other day that they have crews taking laser line shots across it. Now they admit it has “moved” which means its failing.

BTW, that photo posted? The water is blue. If that photo was taken today, the water will be brown.

Got to see a present photo.

Moving 400 million people out of harms way seems impossible. It would be like moving 122% of America’s 330 million people (approximately).

My guess is that the low life communist creatures that run China have already decided that the 400 million men, women and children are expendable and they are not going to do a damn thing.

The problem is that China once claimed the dam would withstand a 10,000 year flood, then a 1,000 year flood and now only a 100 year flood

Completed in 2006. Maybe it can withstand a 15 year flood.......or 14 rather.

"But not just to China. The country already is a net food importer. Without soybeans from Brazil and the USA and wheat from Australia and Europe and the US, China cannot feed its livestock let alone its human population. The collapse of the TGD would perhaps be the single largest disaster that could affect the world’s food security because aside from the immediate disaster there would be enormous upward pressure on food prices, putting essential staples out of reach of hundreds of millions of people outside China."

If 400 million people drown, wouldn't that lessen demand for food in China? "The point here is that anyone concerned about food anywhere should want to think through what they might do if the TGD failed." STOCK UP AHEAD OF TIME?

Blasting dams and embankments to discharge water was an extreme response
employed during China’s worst floods in recent years in 1998, when more
than 2,000 people died and almost 3 million homes were destroyed.

Seasonal flooding strikes large parts of China annually, especially in
its central and southern regions, but has been especially severe this
summer. More than 150 people have died or are missing in flooding
and landslides brought on by the torrential rains — 23 of them since
Thursday alone.

About 1.8 million people have been evacuated, and direct losses attributed
to flooding are estimated at more than 49 billion yuan ($7 billion), according
to the Ministry of Emergency Management.

And then it will discharge into the Pacific Ocean to the dismay of Korea, Japan, and eventually CA,WA,OR. Being a globalist means having to live in each other’s sh*t.

After numerous hints, Xi Jin Ping may be about to discover that the Mandate of Heaven has turned against the Mao Dynasty.
