No. And Uncle Sucker will take in a million military-age refugees, while shipping food to China.

The dam itself is probably over-engineered, lots of foreign engineering went into the design and construction:

The wild card is if a large landslide, caused by one of the frequent earthquakes in the area, caused a tsunami-like effect in the water behind the dam.
