We can debate the usefulness of the previous deal, but I don't think it could be said that it would prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. If they complied with every facet of the deal many of the conditions had a sunset clause. At best the deal was delaying Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. Odd, as they've publicly stated that they don't want them.

Why the need for a deal with Iran about developing something they state they don't even want?
