Noah - Apocalypse 2

This one is a little off the beaten path but worth considering. Apparently the huge Mosul Dam in Iraq which was finished in 1984 is leaking - a lot. In fact, it was built on a porous base that engineers knew at the time could not hold such a massive structure without leaking profusely. Since it was completed, 200,000,000 pounds of special concrete has been added on pretty much a daily basis to plug leaks. 

Unfortunately, when ISIS took possession and even after they were ejected by U.S. special ops troops, the regular patching regime stopped. Now there is a growing fear that with the Spring snow melt in the mountains this year, the dam will burst and flood a wide area of Iraq starting with Mosul and going down to Baghdad and beyond. The festivities will start with a wall of water 45-70' high. 

This whole part of the Middle East is the Land of Biblical-sized events and it looks like a re-run of the Noah experience may occur. Hopefully, there are some wise men in Iraq who have built their houses upon the Rock and may even be headed for other locations as this is written.
