LONDON -- Britain is committed to working with the United Statesin attacking the Islamic State (IS) target in Syriaand Iraq, said British Prime Minister David Camaron Sunday in a TV interview with U.S. TV network NBC.

Camaron said that he expects Britain to "do more" than just provide logistical support for American attacks against the IS, and he needed to "take Parliament with him."

Two years ago, British members of parliament voted against a proposed military action in Syria.

In his most explicit comments to date on the terrorist threat to Britain, Cameron said: "I want Britain to do more. Be in no doubt, we are committed to working with you to destroy the caliphate in both countries."
