US admits Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction
The US claimed however that there were signs he had dormant programmes he hoped to revive at a later time.
In a 1,500-page report, the head of the Iraq Survey Group, Charles Duelfer, will find Saddam was importing banned materials, working on unmanned aerial vehicles in violation of UN agreements and maintaining a dual-use industrial sector that could produce weapons. Mr Duelfer also says Iraq had only small research and development programmes for chemical and biological weapons.
