Allison Discusses Nuclear Threats in Israel

Winter 2004-05

Graham Allison carried his message of preventing nuclear terrorism to Israel in early January. During his five-day visit, he spoke on "Nuclear Terrorism: The Ultimate Preventable Disaster" at the residence of U.S. Ambassador Daniel C. Kurtzer as part of the Ambassador's Distinguished American Speakers Series. The audience of leading academics, military, and government officials engaged Allison in a thoughtful discussion of concrete examples of what can be done to prevent such a catastrophe.

Allison continued to address nuclear terrorism and its prevention at an Israel Atomic Energy Agency roundtable discussion, at meetings with security and foreign affairs officials from the Israeli government and conferences at Hebrew University and Tel Aviv University, and during interviews with Israeli television and newspapers.
