mr. malley: sure. listen.heink it is clear from obama administration that defense of israel, and i know john expressed controversial view. i think it is worth articulating and hearing it, but let's take your question at its face. it is true thatisrael feels iran is a threat to their security. the question is, and this is a question that i think president obama tried to answer, is israel more secure with an iran moving towards a nuclear bomb or one that is not? that is a conversation, so many composition t had with prime minister netanyahu about where he said i get your concerns. but let's agree if we have a deal that at a minimum for the next 10 to 15 years, ensure iran can't move toward a nuclear bomb without us knowing right away, and we will stop it. that is better. much better than the alternative. that is on that point. on partian. not only did we know about it, that was a sticking point in the numerous asian -- in the negotiation, to make sure the iaea would have access so they could find issues past mil
