Ground Zero?
Bushehr - Reactor Construction Site
"The focus of a considerable amount of controversy in the United States, the nuclear facility at Brushehr, Iran is being built under an agreement between the Russian and Iranian governments for $800-million. Although originally intended to be the location of a German-built reactor in the 1970s, the new reactor will be built to Russian designs, though the original reactor buildings exterior appearance will remain essentially the same.
There are two reactor buildings at Bushehr, on the left is Unit I, which is in an advanced stage of completion, Unit II on the right has not been worked on for some time and is not currently scheduled to be completed.
The German designs call for the building between the two units to contain workshops, stores, a water treatment plant, laboratory, welfare rooms, as well as the diesel emergency generators for Unit I."
Time is running out and the UN pressure on Iran seems to have no effect. Don't be surprised if this facility taken out by an Isreali strike in the very near future.
