According to a press report, members of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) have degrees in hydro-engineering, so the dam will not fail.
(Don’t yell at me. I’m just relating what the media said.)
Good.
I hope it fails. The short term economic impact on China would be about the same as what they did to everyone else when they intentionally released the virus. The long term impact hopefully sets those bastards back 50 years.
Karma’s a b*tch!
They need that ram like they need - a hole in the head
I’ve seen photos of buildings in China like that before. Amazing how they stay together in spite of falling over.
If only they put as much attention and engineering into what can’t be seen (soil preparation, piles, substructure, etc.) as what can be seen.
I’m guessing that might be their mind set. See it often over there.
Hmmm. The foundation for a dam is even more important than a building.
They’re already underwater even with the dam. Oh lookee here...Tropical Storm Higos is supposed to hit China tomorrow!
I was wondering what was happening with that.
Add that to the storms that hit the US, and the locust plagues, and you’re looking at some serious food shortages.
It’s made in China.
There not much precedent for high quality items.
Besides, there’s only so much man made can withstand against nature.
He should scram
What a lot of people do not realize or even heard about including the Chinese is, that once again we have been heading into another one one the 3600 year repetitive cycles described in literature, historic accounts as well in great detail by Emanuel Velikovsky. It is the same cycle which give or take about 3520 years ago produced the TEN PLAGUES and drove the than Pharaoh nuts who eventually conceded to Moses demands and freed the Jews what went down in the annals of history as the EXODUS. From ancient Chinese historic accounts we know that about the same time China experienced very similar problems as they did in ancient Egypt such as flooding, severe storms as well as quakes etc. in other words what was taking place was on a worldwide scale, quite like what China is experiencing right now.
As we look around on a worldwide scale all these crazy weather events seem to back this up. From an unusual heat spell in the arctic region to camels stumping around in snow in some areas in Saudi Arabia, to excessive flooding in other areas receiving several month worth of rain in just a few hours, or severe droughts in others along with an increase in quakes as well a volcanic eruptions and so far we are just partially into this cycle. As I have stated on several occasion in the past, so far the US has been relatively fortunate escaping some of these devastating events, aside from he last storm which did a number on Iowa’s crop or last years flooding in Nebraska. As far as The Three Gorges Dam is concerned with a little luck it may hold, short of an earthquake what is always a possibility. I for one could not sleep vey well living downstream knowing that this dam is holding back a lake give or take 340 miles in length.
The winners of wars decide what is a war crime.

The key word is engineered.
But in china shoddy materials and construction rule the day.
I have lots of praise for Epoch Times.
But their coverage of the China floods isn’t included.
Can you share with us what’s wrong with their coverage of the floods in China?
Won’t it be enough that the 3 Gorges dam holds?
“What’s a million Chinese?”
A statistic?
