THE Iraq war dossier was filled with “lies” about dictator Saddam Hussein having weapons of mass destruction (WMD), the Chilcot inquiry heard yesterday.
Middle East expert Carne Ross accused the Blair government of presiding over a misleading document that had been re-edited.
The ex-diplomat, who helped shape Security Council policy on Iraq working for the UK at the UN, said the seriousness of WMDs was intentionally and substantially exaggerated.
He said the claim Saddam could launch WMDs in 45 minutes had no basis in intelligence.
