<strong>TO</strong>DD: Isn't the -- there was one expert here named Richard Haas said his biggest concern is ifIran does comply with the deal for this reason, he believes if Iran complies with the deal then in15 years they can have a nuclear weapon. What do you say to that? CAMERON: Well, I don'tbelieve that's right. Actually, this deal says that it's never acceptable for Iran to have a nuclearweapon. Obviously, the time frame for which the safeguards are in place and the inspection is inplace is for a particular period of time but the deal actually says it's not acceptable for Iran tohave a nuclear weapon.But again, what we've done is make sure the timeline for them possibly getting a nuclearweapon has gotten longer not shorter.<strong>TO</strong>DD: Prime Minister Netanyahu and many people in Israel do not believe this makes themsafer. Everybody in the United States on the Obama administration has argued it does. I heardyou argue that it does, too. Why is he wrong and you guys are right?CAMERON: Well, I quite understand the concerns of people living in Israel. You would if youhad to deal with the terrorism of Hamas and Hezbollah, if you had the threats to your countryand you know what a threat Iran has been to your country. So I fully understand their concerns.But I would say to my friends in Israel, including the Israeli Prime Minister, look, the threat of anuclear-armed Iran -- that is now off the table. And I think that's a success.<strong>TO</strong>DD: David Cameron, Prime Minister of Great Britain. Thanks for coming on MEET <strong>THE</strong>PRESS, sir.CAMERON: Thank you.
