Kelly believed Iraq had WMD

One week before judge Lord Hutton delivers his report on the scientist's suicide -- a judgement which could rock the government to its core -- the BBC's investigative Panorama programme will broadcast later on Wednesday an interview it recorded with Kelly in October 2002, which it has never shown.
According to the BBC's website, Kelly did regard Saddam Hussein as posing an "immediate threat". "Even if they're not actually filled and deployed today, the capability exists to get them filled and deployed within a matter of days and weeks," the BBC quoted Kelly as saying of Iraq's weaponry.
"(Saddam) would have been planning to develop them and have far better and far more effective systems, and those we are completely unsighted of, and we're unsighted as to whether that work has continued since 1991 to this very day," he said.
