  • The comments below are for ak22 not for Jimbo.

    Jimbo I live down stream REALLY down stream from the damn. And I am going to sleep on the roof from now on! lol Readig the local Newspapers the locals take the USACE warning seriously but do not trust their government's statements. They have greater faith in us.

    I am in a suburb south of Baghdad and even here the wave would still be almost 2-3 meters high

  • What in the hell are you talking about? How is the USACE declaring the Mosul Dam unsafe another way of americans screwing Iraq? The big screw over was driving the country into the ground by invading it but how are we screwing them by alerting the dam is unsafe? If it is repaired who do you think will pay for it? The US taxpayer. Which is mostly fair. You A holes wanted to send us to war? Well now you own the porcelain doll you droped!! Thank You GW worse president ever!!

  • This is crap,i was civil engineer working there in 1988,the Dam was constructed by germany and Italy it was called Gemod at that time,Saddam Hussain has nothing to do with,i admit there was problem about the gibs which affected by water,but this was science 1988,and there was treatment science at all time and there was project to construct another dam in Badoosh for prottection just in case.Now the american want to milk the country in every aspect,apparently oil is not enough for them .
