I also do not think that India, Vietnam, the U.S. or anyone else looks at the Three Gorges dam as of any military interest, except in some all out war scenario. Small minor conflicts do not lightly bring cause for considering such a target, knowing equal retaliation would be the result. So, minus any “big war” scenario, I think there is not ANY military interest, by anyone. “Future planning” for all possible scenarios goes on all the time, but that does not make things of immediate interest.

Agreed...I see no chance of a preemptive strike on that dam or anything else in the PRC at this point.

Given the way the Chinese have been treating the muslim Uigars (sp?), concentration camps and probably worse. The Fulan Gong people say they have also been persecuted with organs being harvested for transplant and other horrors. Who is to say some muslim terror group might not take out that dam. I doubt they care much for other Chinese ethnic groups after the way they have been treated.
