00:00The head of the UN atomic watchdog is warning that an Israeli strike on Iran's southern nuclear
00:07plant could trigger a regional disaster. If Israel ignores these warnings, how severe would
00:14the consequences be? Great to be with you, Leanne. I think we don't have any information that Israel
00:21will in fact target Bushir. There's no reason that they would want to create a radiological
00:27disaster. And from a non-proliferation standpoint, the Bushir reactor really doesn't pose a threat
00:34for nuclear weapons development. It has a level of plutonium that is a byproduct from operating
00:42the reactor. But it's not the ideal plutonium that Iran would want. And so I would expect
00:49that Jerusalem will stay far away from this facility.
