What We're Reading

This Iran Project report provides a sober assessment of what the consequences of military strikes on Iran's nuclear program might be. — Matthew Bunn

The Inspector General's report on the Y-12 breach shows a truly remarkable account of a breakdown in security culture. Y-12 was regarded as having a particularly strong security culture; one wonders if similar problems exist at other sites. — Matthew Bunn

Ephraim Kam’s “An Attack on Iran: The Morning After” offers a concise (and not very rosy) Israeli assessment of risks, benefits, and uncertainties of striking Iran. — Martin Malin

Severe nuclear reactor accidents likely every 10 to 20 years, European study suggests. — Eben Harrell
