In case you didn't read it at the time, here is the 'Iraq Dossier'
http://news.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/spl...raqdossier.pdf

The only stated UK threat was to the UKSBA in Cyprus, by virtue of the fact that Saddam had built an engine test stand for the future development of missiles which might reach them. An implied threat was that 20 Al-Hussein missiles could have reached the UKSBA.

No evidence was presented that Saddam had any intention of attacking the UK, or indeed any Western or NATO nation.
