A flood myth or deluge myth is a mythical story of a great flood sent by a deity or deities to destroy civilization as an act of divine retribution. It is a theme widespread among many cultures, though it is perhaps best known in modern times through the biblical and Quranic account of Noah's Ark, the Hindu Puranic story of Manu, through Deucalion in Greek mythology or Utnapishtim in the Epic of Gilgamesh.
On 16 August [2010] the World Bank announced it's aid package to flood hit Pakistan where over 20 million people have been affected by the disaster. The economic cost is expected to be huge. The World Bank has committed to provide $900 million in financial assistance as well as conducting a Damages and Needs Assessment in flood-hit areas.
Today another Bretton Woods sister organisation the International Monetary Fund announced its own commitment to disaster relief in Pakistan.

According to the BBC News Website (21 August 2010) -
"The International Monetary Fund says the floods that have struck Pakistan pose a "massive economic challenge" and it will review the country's budget and financial prospects.
The IMF will start talks with Pakistani officials in Washington on Monday to assess how best to give help.
Tens of thousands more Pakistanis have been fleeing the floods, with the south now bearing the brunt."
Meanwhile to the north Russia is burning as wildfires threaten the grain supplies in the greatest heatwave on record, Moscow is enveloped in fog from the raging fires on the doorstep.
Fires have destroyed crops on roughly 20% of the country's agricultural land lots, the result being that the food prices are clearly set to climb rapidly
All that's missing from the picture (you may think) are the plagues of locusts.....you'd be wrong though... because farmers across the Australian Outback have had to deal with this after millions of the grasshopper-like insects swept across four states earlier this year. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/article7098057.ece
As it happens, even the locusts are there too but what is going on, is it all global warming or what?
Well global warming is a bit of a tricky subject now as climate experts hurl accusations and abuse at each other from either side of the human cause/ Sun driven explanations of increasing temperatures and changing rainfall and other weather patterns.
In the US this "debate" has also degenerated into a mud slinging match between political supporters and opponents of Al Gore.
So something has happened to the global climate... some say it is caused by greenhouse gasses others say it is sunspots; some say the causes are mostly man made, while their opponents claim that natural events are causing changes to weather systems on Earth and on other planets in the solar system.
As Russia watches its essential bread basket go up in flames and Pakistan sees its people and their crops being washed away there was more disruption in China earlier this month when more than 1,300 people are reported to have died after flash floods and landslides struck north-west China and covered entire villages in water, mud, and rocks.
Given these disastrous changes in the weather which are causing unprecedented 'natural' events to take place in many different areas of the world how should we respond?
According to today's Hindustan Times ( Sun,22 Aug 2010)....... With worst ever geological disasters hitting China in 2010, questions are being raised over the strategy to construct mega dams to divert river waters.
China recorded more than 26,000 geological disasters in the first seven months of this year, nearly 10 times the number in the same period last year, Minister of Land and Resources Xu Shaoshi said.
There were only 10,500 geological disasters in China in 2009.
This year says the Hindustan Times several counties were hit by mudslides engulfing several multi-storey buildings burying the occupants alive.
Therefore as appeals from UNICEF UK and many other charities and NGOs drop on my doormat and appear in my inbox saying things like:-
Please donate now to UNICEF’s urgent emergency appeal to help save children in Pakistan. £30 could immunise 30 children against deadly measles. £50 could help provide 5 families with access to safe drinking water.
I am left to contemplate what all this means and wonder why Pakistan needs the World Bank, the IMF and now £30 or maybe £50 from me too, to save its people from the deadly aftermath of this terrible tragedy.
As I muse on that question I begin to notice a certain pattern in all of these disasters; and that is they are all taking place in parts of the world that America and NATO doesn't like; except the Australian locusts of course, which I think is the exception that proves the rule here.
Now as anyone who has read my posts before will know I hate conspiracy theories and have done my best to debunk a number of them over the years. As a practitioner of the newly created discipline of 21 century forensic history there has to be some credible evidence to support any theory proposed or discussed on my site.
So, in the light of that empirical commitment I want to suggest an explanation for the climate changes that are wreaking havoc across the globe that do not refer to either greenhouse gasses or sunspots as the primary cause.
What's more I will briefly suggest a scenario that could be seen as hiding beneath a smokescreen of the so-called climate debate, but one for which there is hard evidence and does not rely on pure conjecture.
The hypothesis to which I refer is that Pakistan, Russia and China are in fact being attacked with meteorological weaponry consistent with the Plan for a New American Century (PNAC) and the doctrine of Full Spectrum Dominance embodied there within.
So here are a few points to consider on whether we could think the global warming debate is a red herring or not?
Firstly the US is certainly exploring the possibilities of controlling the climate in several regions of the world.
The corresponding technology is being developed in the framework of the High-Frequency Active Aural Research Program» (HAARP), the objective being to build a potential to launch droughts, hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes.
From the military standpoint, HAARP is supposed to create a novel type of weapons of mass destruction and an instrument of expansionist policy which can be used to selectively destabilize environmental and agricultural systems of target countries .
Technically, the system is known to be a set of sources of electromagnetic radiation affecting the ionosphere. It comprises 360 sources and 180 aerials having the height of 22 meters .
Altogether the station emits 3,600 kW towards the ionosphere, being the world's most powerful system of the kind.
The program which opened in 1990, is jointly funded by the US Office of Naval Research and the US Air Force Research Laboratory, and is implemented by several university laboratories. http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=20380
The stuff of 'conspiracy theories' perhaps?
That is certainly what the Conspiracy Theory conspiracy theories claim of course, but there is undoubtedly some truth in the fact that HAARP does exist and here's a picture of it.
HAARP weather manipulation from Alaska
Now we might say at this point, "hang on a minute, this is all slipping into the realm of pure fantasy, surely you cannot be seriously proposing that the United States is attacking Pakistan, Russia and China with non-lethal climate weapons, you must be raving mad?"
Well maybe, but we only need go back four years to U.S. Senate Bill 517 and U.S. House Bill 2995, a bill that would allow experimental weather modification by artificial methods and implement a national weather modification policy, that does not include public oversight and which was “fast tracked” back in 2006.
This is hardly the stuff of fairy tales... as long ago as 1975, the US and Canada entered into an agreement under the auspices of the United Nations for the exchange of information on weather modification activity.
Artificial weather modification can impact all of us by reducing water supplies, changing agricultural crop production cycles, reducing crop production, and water availability. Since most experimental weather modification programs use chemicals released into the atmosphere the public could be subjected increasingly toxic or unknown substances that could adversely impact agricultural crops and trees.
Trimethyl Aluminum (TMA) and barium are just two of the toxic chemicals used in recent atmospheric heating and testing programs according to NASA.
The Alaska H.A.A.R.P. atmospheric heating program may have the capability of changing the Jet Stream which could also change our weather.
So the thought that has crossed my mind just recently when contemplating what has happened to Pakistan and various other places.... is this, what if a bunch of fundamentalist Christian madmen in Washington wanted to 'facilitate' biblical predictions by unleashing fires and floods against its 'foes' and as a means of achieving that vaunted goal of full spectrum dominance?
The economic effect of the floods on Pakistan are eerily similar to the effects of the fires on Russia, in both countries food production has been seriously disrupted leading innevitably to shortages and rapid price inflation.
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan--(AP) (August 22, 2010, 3:58pm) – The floods tearing through Pakistan’s breadbasket have further weakened this already unstable country, inflicting more economic pain on its people and threatening a key pillar of the United States-led war against Islamist militants — who stand to gain from the misery. http://www.mb.com.ph/articles/273633/floods-inflict-more-pain-pakistani
If the extremity of such a notion is bound to condemn it to the status of a conspiracy theory, which well it might.....then the empirical evidence for both the capability and the will to carry out such warfare retrieves it for conspiracy fact.
Unless we propose that there are no conspiracies and the behaviour of the United States government and its NATO allies is always open and honest and beyond reproach, then this hypothesis is at least as strong as the argument for greenhouse gasses or solar flares being at the root of these problems.
Pakistan has been turned over to the control by the IMF and World Bank though Wall Street's friends from Bretton Woods as the US government aid effort attests.
Washington, manages to give Pakistan $1-billion every year for its help in fighting the Taliban along the Afghan border.
But when it comes to humanitarian relief, the U.S. could only find a meager $70-million. War is the only priority it seems.
