Iraq War Based on Fake Intelligence: “Sexed up” Report on the Death of Weapons Inspector Dr. David Kelly: Lord Hutton Findings challenged by Medical Doctors
Introductory Note
Our thoughts today are with the people of Iraq, whose country was invaded twenty years on March 19, 2003. The destruction and loss of life is beyond description. More than a million deaths have been recorded.
It is important to analyze the political justification of the invasion of Iraq which was presented to public opinion. The evidence is overwhelming. The justification to wage war on Iraq was based on fake intelligence. War crimes committed at the highest levels of government.
Smoking Guns
The War narrative which unfolded with Colin Powell’s February 5, 2003 presentation to the UN Security Council was that Saddam possessed “Weapons of Mass Destruction”.
The intelligence Dossier presented by Colin Powell to the UNSC emanating from Tony Blair’s cabinet was fake, confirmed by Dr. Glen Rangwala
See our earlier article:
By Prof Michel Chossudovsky and Glen Rangwala, March 18, 2023
The Assassination of Dr. David Kelly
Another important event, which occurred in the wake of the invasion was the assassination of Weapons Inspector Dr. David Kelly.
David Kelly was Britain’s foremost expert on biological weapons, with direct access to WMD intelligence on Iraq. In the months leading up to his death, he had become increasingly skeptical regarding Iraq’s alleged WMDs.
According to Yassmeen Radif, Matt Roberts and Harry Zacharias in a comprehensive report:
“The basis for this war had been laid out in two distinct dossiers [September 24, 2002 and the February 3, 203 Dossier]”
The latter was published 2 days prior to Colin Powell’s presentation to the UNSC.
“When he began to raise concerns about the integrity of these documents, he would find himself caught in a political storm. Four months later, Kelly was dead.”
The chronology
March 2002: Tony Blair Commissions an Intelligence Dossier about weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in four countries.
24 September, 2002. The intelligence dossier described as ‘Iraq’s Weapons of Mass Destruction: The Assessment of the British Government’ is completed. Dr. David Kelly was involved in this first version, providing a historical review of UNSCOM inspections and “providing input into Iraq’s concealment and deception”. He expressed reservations with the September 2003 draft: “Kelly believed that the wording was not incorrect, but had ‘a lot of spin on it‘”.
3 February 2003. A second revised dossier entitled ‘Iraq – Its Infrastructure of Concealment, Deception and Intimidation’was made public. It would appear that Dr. Kelly was not involved in the drafting of February 3, 2003 version of the Intelligence Dossier.
5 February 2003. The intelligence Dossier on WMD released on February 3, 2003 was presented by Colin Powell to the UN Security Council.
19 March, 2003. The invasion and bombing of Iraq
22 May, 2003. David Kelly meets Andrew Gilligan ( i.e. in the wake of the invasion which was completed in April 2003).
15th of July 2003: David Kelly was invited to appear before the Foreign Affairs Select Committee of the House of Commons pertaining to his meetings with BBC journalist Gilligan.
“…His evidence to the committee was that he had not said the things Gilligan had reported his source as saying, and members of the committee came to the conclusion that he had not been the source. Some of the questioning was very precise. The Labour MP Andrew MacKinlay, in particular, used a forceful tone in his cross-examination. … Kelly was deeply upset by his treatment before the Committee (Military History)
17th of July: The underlying circumstances did not point to suicide.
Kelly was working as usual at home in Oxfordshire. Media coverage of his public appearance two days before had led many of his friends to send him supportive emails, to which he was responding. …
At about 15:00, Kelly told his wife that he was going for a walk as he did every day. … His wife reported him missing shortly after midnight that night, and he was found early the next morning [18th of July 2023].” (Military History)
The evidence suggests that his alleged “Suicide” was staged. See statements and analysis of Drs. Stephen Frost, Christopher Burns-Cox and David Halpin
The Hutton Report
More than two years later, on November 3, 2006, The Times published a letter by Lord Hutton, in which he attempted to defend his report on Dr. David Kelly’s death. In the letter, Lord Hutton dwells on the issue of the allegedly “sexed up” intelligence, ignoring the arguably much larger issue of his failure to establish exactly how Dr. David Kelly died.
The inquiry purported to obviate the need for an inquest. Suicide was seemingly assumed from the outset by Lord Hutton, and the Hutton Inquiry descended into establishing who, between the BBC and the Government, was to blame for the suicide of Dr Kelly. But, crucially, suicide was never proved, either by the Coroner or Lord Hutton, as required by law.
Whether or not the intelligence was sexed up (itself a serious enough matter) was, as it turned out, viewed as a side issue. It was completely missed by the mainstream media that Lord Hutton, who seemingly assumed suicide from the outset, thereby undermining due process, laid himself open to charges of cover-up, by himself “sexing up” his own findings on the cause of Dr David Kelly’s death.
But, a cover-up of what? What was so important to hide that such an elaborate cover-up, if that is what it was, was deemed necessary, given the huge inherent risks?
A response to Lord Hutton’s letter to The Times was hurriedly drafted and submitted to The Times by three distinguished doctors. However, The Times refused to publish the letter, and declined to give a reason.
We bring to the attention of our readers the text of the letter which the Times refused to publish.
It is important to note that two of the authors of this letter, Drs. C. Stephen Frostand David Halpin (together with Dr Searle Sennett) succeeded in breaking the mainstream media silence on the possibility that Dr David Kelly did not commit suicide, by having a letter published in The Guardian on 27 January 2004 (see link in Annex), the eve of publication of the Hutton Report.
The letter directly led to the splash headline “Was Dr Kelly Murdered?” in The Evening Standard later the same day, though the doctors had not suggested that.
Later that evening, despite unprecedentd security to prevent such a leak, the Hutton Report was duly leaked to the Sun.
Thus, instead of The Evening Standard headline becoming the main story in the mainstream media the next day (the very day on which the Hutton Report was published), the leak to The Sun became the main story.
Lord Hutton and Tony Blair were said to be incensed by the leak, and an inquiry was immediately ordered to identify the source of the leak.
Some months later, that inquiry’s report was quietly published and was hardly noticed; it said that it had not been possible to establish the source of the leak.
Not surprisingly, many suspect that the source of the leak was none other than 10 Downing Street itself.
The original three doctors were subsequently joined by other doctors, and lawyers, and, as a result, five more letters appeared in The Guardian in 2004, and one in The New Statesman (2 May 2005), just prior to the 2005 General Election.

We remain indebted to Stephen Frost, Christopher Burns-Cox and David Halpin for having revealed the truth regarding Dr. David Kelly.

Response to Lord Hutton
by
Drs. Stephen Frost, Christopher Burns-Cox and David Halpin
Dear Sir
Lord Hutton presided over an inquiry which sought to apportion blame between the BBC and the Government for the “suicide” of Dr David Kelly when no “verdict” of suicide had been (and still has not been) reached. His report was widely labelled a “whitewash”, because he was perceived to apportion that blame unfairly (given the evidence he had heard), all but exonerating the Government, and placing the blame almost entirely on the BBC. Now, in his letter published in the Times (3 November 2006), he seemingly seeks to defend his report by setting out his case re the minutiae of the “45 minute claim”.
Lord Hutton misses the essential point. What is more, it appears that he was used by the Government to subvert due process in establishing precisely how Dr Kelly died.
We and several other medical colleagues (and lawyers) attempted in a series of six letters published in The Guardian and one in the New Statesman to inform the public, and the mainstream press, that all doctors learn at medical school that, in order to return a “verdict” of “suicide”, a coroner must prove suicide beyond reasonable doubt (a very high level of proof), including “intent” to commit suicide, also beyond reasonable doubt. If the Coroner cannot achieve the necessary level of proof, he is required by law to return an “open verdict”, assuming that “foul play” has at the outset been excluded in the proper manner. Unfortunately, there is some doubt as to whether “foul play” was properly excluded in the case of Dr Kelly.
However, disregarding any such failure in such a high-profile death, it is important to understand that the public was invited to believe that Dr Kelly’s death would be better investigated at the Hutton Inquiry than at a coroner’s inquest, when the exact opposite was the case.
Lord Hutton possessed none of the powers normally available to the Coroner. He could not (and did not) hear evidence under oath, he could not subpoena witnesses, he could not aggressively cross-examine witnesses, and he could not call a jury. Not enough with that, his inquiry was an “ad hoc” inquiry, not a public inquiry (as the public and the press were led to believe) subject to the provisions of the Public Inquiries Act !921 (itself quietly repealed last year and replaced by the Inquiries Act 2005). Lord Hutton was invited (and consented) by Lord Falconer (the Lord Chancellor and the Minister for Constitutional Affairs) to conduct an inquiry on the very day that Dr Kelly’s body was allegedly found.
Later, Lord Falconer, used his powers as Lord Chancellor to invoke Section 17a of the 1988 Coroners’ Act and order the Oxfordshire Coroner, Mr Nicholas Gardiner, to “adjourn indefinitely” his inquest.
But, Section 17a had become law on 1 January 2000, largely, it is believed, at the instigation of Lord Falconer. Its purpose was allegedly to obviate duplication of inquiry following multiple death scenarios (eg train disasters), when the cause of death could to some extent be assumed. But, Dr Kelly’s death was a solitary death.
In addition, Lord Hutton’s remit and powers (since it was an “ad hoc” inquiry) were determined by Lord Falconer. Lord Hutton’s remit was extremely narrow (and Lord Hutton seemingly sought to narrow it further), and his powers were very limited, so limited in fact that Lord Hutton could not prove anything, let alone “suicide”.
After all, Lord Hutton was directed by Lord Falconer to do no more than “inquire into the circumstances surrounding the death of Dr David Kelly”, and it appears that establishing the cause of Dr Kelly’s death was not viewed as a priority. But, the cause of the death should have been THE priority in an inquiry which eventually purported to obviate the need for a full inquest.
Despite all this, the Coroner, Mr Nicholas Gardiner, on 16 March 2004, thought fit to conclude that there was no “exceptional reason” for him to re-open the Inquest, and even deferred to Lord Falconer by saying that he (Lord Falconer) was happy with the findings of Lord Hutton, and then went on to say “and so am I”.
Given the obvious “insuffiency of inquiry” re the cause of Kelly’s death over which Lord Hutton presided, he (the Coroner) should not have been sharing in Lord Falconer’s happiness. In addition, the Coroner was surely extremely unwise to talk to the Mail on Sunday some weeks before his final hearing in March 2004, saying that he wished to achieve “closure” at his coming hearing, and hinting at that stage that he could see no “exceptional reason” to re-open the Inquest.
Apparently, it is unprecedented for judges to discuss publicly their findings, as Lord Hutton has done, not once, but twice. But, then, it is unprecedented for the Government to lead the public to believe that a “verdict” of suicide has been reached, and the Inquest “closed”, when no such verdict could be reached, and for that reason the Inquest could not be closed.
Dr David Kelly is the first British citizen to be denied an inquest in such circumstances. Given the clear “insufficiency of inquiry”, regarding the cause of death over which Lord Hutton presided, the Coroner should have re-opened the Inquest.
There are unconfirmed reports that he (the Coroner) now regrets that he did not do so. It is our view that if the Coroner is not able at this late stage to reverse his decision, a fresh inquest should be ordered.

ANNEX:
Text of Lord Hutton’s Letter to The Times
Sexed-up means just what it says and no more
From Lord Hutton
The Times, London, 3 November 2006
Sir,
Your summary (report, Nov 1) of my report into the death of Dr David Kelly was too brief to give an entirely accurate description of my finding in respect of the alleged “sexing up” of the September 2002 dossier.
On May 29, 2003, Mr Andrew Gilligan, the BBC defence correspondent, reported (inter alia) on the Today programme the allegation that “the Government probably knew that that 45 figure was wrong, even before it decided to put it in…Downing Street, our source says, a week before publication ordered it to be sexed up, to be made more exciting and more facts to be discovered”.
He went on to say: “Our source says that the dossier, as it was finally published, made the intelligence services unhappy because, to quote the source, he said there was basically unhappiness because it didn’t reflect the considered view they were putting forward”.
In the evidence to my inquiry the Chief of the Secret Intelligence Service and four other members of the Joint Intelligence Committee stated that the dossier was issued with the full approval of that committee. There was no evidence that the very senior figures in British Intelligence who gave evidence to the inquiry had taken part in a conspiracy with the government to mislead the country by inserting intelligence in the dossier which was known or believed to be wrong. Therefore, I found that the allegation reported by the BBC that “the Government probably knew that the 45 figure was wrong even before it decided to put it in” was unfounded.
In paragraph 220 of the report I stated: “The term ‘sexed-up’ is a slang expression, the meaning of which lacks clarity in the context of a discussion of the dossier. It is capable of two different meanings. It could mean that the dossier was embellished with items of intelligence known or believed to be or unreliable to make the case against Saddam Hussein stronger, or it could mean that while the intelligence contained in the dossier was believed to be reliable, the dossier was drafted in such a way as to make the case against Saddam Hussein as strong as the intelligence contained in it permitted. If the term is used in this latter sense then, because of the drafting suggestions made by 10 Downing Street for the purpose of making a strong case against Saddam Hussein, it could be said that the Government ‘sexed-up’ the dossier. However, having regard to the other allegations contained in Mr Gilligan’s broadcasts of May 29 I consider that those who heard the broadcasts would have understood the allegation of ‘sexing-up’ to be used in the first sense which I have described, namely that the Government ordered that the dossier be embellished with false or unreliable items of intelligence…Therefore, in the context of Mr Gilligan’s broadcasts, I consider that the allegation that the Government ordered the dossier to be ‘sexed-up’ was unfounded.”

Perang Irak Berdasarkan Intelijen Palsu: Laporan “Seks” tentang Kematian Inspektur Senjata Dr. David Kelly: Temuan Lord Hutton ditantang oleh Dokter Medis
Catatan Pengantar
Pikiran kita hari ini bersama rakyat Irak, yang negaranya diserang dua puluh tahun pada 19 Maret 2003. Kehancuran dan hilangnya nyawa tidak dapat dijelaskan. Lebih dari satu juta kematian telah dicatat.
Penting untuk menganalisis pembenaran politik dari invasi Irak yang disajikan kepada opini publik. Buktinya luar biasa. Pembenaran untuk berperang di Irak didasarkan pada intelijen palsu. Kejahatan perang dilakukan di tingkat pemerintahan tertinggi.
Senjata Merokok
Narasi Perang yang terungkap dengan presentasi Colin Powell pada 5 Februari 2003 kepada Dewan Keamanan PBB adalah bahwa Saddam memiliki “Senjata Pemusnah Massal”.
Berkas intelijen yang disajikan oleh Colin Powell kepada DK PBB yang berasal dari kabinet Tony Blair adalah palsu, dikonfirmasi oleh Dr. Glen Rangwala
Lihat artikel kami sebelumnya:
Colin Powell dan “The Sloppy Dossier”: Plagiarisme dan “Intelijen Palsu” Digunakan untuk Membenarkan Perang 2003 di Irak: Disalin dan Ditempel dari Internet ke dalam Laporan Intel Inggris “Resmi”
Oleh Prof Michel Chossudovsky dan Glen Rangwala, 18 Maret 2023
Pembunuhan Dr. David Kelly
Peristiwa penting lainnya, yang terjadi setelah invasi adalah pembunuhan Inspektur Senjata Dr. David Kelly.
David Kelly adalah ahli senjata biologis terkemuka di Inggris, dengan akses langsung ke intelijen WMD di Irak. Pada bulan-bulan menjelang kematiannya, dia menjadi semakin skeptis mengenai dugaan WMD Irak.
Menurut Yassmeen Radif, Matt Roberts dan Harry Zacharias dalam laporan yang komprehensif:
“Dasar untuk perang ini telah ditata dalam dua dokumen yang berbeda [24 September 2002 dan 3 Februari 203 Berkas]”
Yang terakhir diterbitkan 2 hari sebelum presentasi Colin Powell ke DK PBB.
“Ketika dia mulai meningkatkan kekhawatiran tentang integritas dokumen-dokumen ini, dia akan menemukan dirinya terjebak dalam badai politik. Empat bulan kemudian, Kelly sudah mati.”
Kronologinya
Maret 2002: Tony Blair Menugaskan Berkas Intelijen tentang senjata pemusnah massal (WMD) di empat negara.
24 September 2002. Berkas intelijen yang digambarkan sebagai “Senjata Pemusnah Massal Irak: Penilaian Pemerintah Inggris” selesai. Dr. David Kelly terlibat dalam versi pertama ini, memberikan tinjauan historis tentang inspeksi UNSCOM dan “memberikan masukan tentang penyembunyian dan penipuan Irak”. Dia menyatakan keberatan dengan draf September 2003: “Kelly percaya bahwa kata-katanya tidak salah, tetapi memiliki ‘banyak putaran di atasnya'”.
3 Februari 2003. Berkas revisi kedua berjudul “Irak – Infrastruktur Penyembunyian, Penipuan, dan Intimidasi” dipublikasikan. Tampaknya Dr. Kelly tidak terlibat dalam penyusunan Intelligence Dossier versi 3 Februari 2003.
5 Februari 2003. Berkas intelijen tentang WMD yang dirilis pada 3 Februari 2003 dipresentasikan oleh Colin Powell kepada Dewan Keamanan PBB.
19 Maret 2003. Invasi dan pengeboman Irak
22 Mei 2003. David Kelly bertemu Andrew Gilligan (yaitu setelah invasi yang selesai pada April 2003).
15 Juli 2003: David Kelly diundang untuk tampil di hadapan Komite Pemilihan Urusan Luar Negeri House of Commons yang berkaitan dengan pertemuannya dengan jurnalis BBC Gilligan.
“…Buktinya kepada komite adalah bahwa dia tidak mengatakan hal-hal yang Gilligan laporkan kepada sumbernya, dan anggota komite sampai pada kesimpulan bahwa dia belum menjadi sumbernya. Beberapa pertanyaan sangat tepat. Anggota parlemen Partai Buruh Andrew MacKinlay, khususnya, menggunakan nada yang kuat dalam pemeriksaan silangnya. … Kelly sangat kesal dengan perlakuannya di hadapan Komite (Sejarah Militer)
17 Juli: Keadaan yang mendasarinya tidak menunjukkan bunuh diri.
Kelly bekerja seperti biasa di rumah di Oxfordshire. Liputan media tentang penampilan publiknya dua hari sebelumnya telah menyebabkan banyak temannya mengiriminya email yang mendukung, yang dia tanggapi. …
Sekitar pukul 15:00, Kelly memberi tahu istrinya bahwa dia akan berjalan-jalan seperti yang dia lakukan setiap hari. … Istrinya melaporkan dia hilang tak lama setelah tengah malam malam itu, dan dia ditemukan keesokan paginya [18 Juli 2023].” (Sejarah Militer)
Bukti menunjukkan bahwa dugaan “Bunuh Diri”-nya dipentaskan. Lihat pernyataan dan analisis Drs. Stephen Frost, Christopher Burns-Cox dan David Halpin
Laporan Hutton
Lebih dari dua tahun kemudian, pada 3 November 2006, The Times menerbitkan sebuah surat oleh Lord Hutton, di mana ia berusaha untuk mempertahankan laporannya tentang Dr. Kematian David Kelly. Dalam surat itu, Lord Hutton berkutat pada masalah intelijen yang diduga “berseks”, mengabaikan masalah kegagalannya yang bisa dibilang jauh lebih besar untuk menetapkan dengan tepat bagaimana Dr. David Kelly meninggal.
Penyelidikan tersebut dimaksudkan untuk meniadakan perlunya pemeriksaan. Bunuh diri tampaknya diasumsikan sejak awal oleh Lord Hutton, dan Penyelidikan Hutton turun ke dalam menetapkan siapa, antara BBC dan Pemerintah, yang harus disalahkan atas bunuh diri Dr Kelly. Tapi, yang terpenting, bunuh diri tidak pernah terbukti, baik oleh Koroner atau Lord Hutton, seperti yang dipersyaratkan oleh hukum.
Apakah kecerdasan itu diseks atau tidak (sendiri masalah yang cukup serius), ternyata, dipandang sebagai masalah sampingan. Itu benar-benar terlewatkan oleh media arus utama bahwa Lord Hutton, yang tampaknya mengasumsikan bunuh diri sejak awal, dengan demikian merusak proses hukum, membuka dirinya terhadap tuduhan menutup-nutupi, dengan dirinya sendiri “berseksasi” temuannya sendiri tentang penyebab kematian Dr David Kelly.
Tapi, menutup-nutupi apa? Apa yang begitu penting untuk disembunyikan bahwa menutup-nutupi yang begitu rumit, jika memang begitu, dianggap perlu, mengingat risiko inheren yang sangat besar?
Tanggapan atas surat Lord Hutton kepada The Times buru-buru disusun dan diserahkan ke The Times oleh tiga dokter terkemuka. Namun, The Times menolak untuk menerbitkan surat itu, dan menolak untuk memberikan alasan.
Kami menarik perhatian pembaca kami teks surat yang ditolak oleh Times untuk diterbitkan.
Penting untuk dicatat bahwa dua penulis surat ini, Drs. C. Stephen Frost dan David Halpin (bersama dengan Dr Searle Sennett) berhasil memecah keheningan media arus utama tentang kemungkinan bahwa Dr David Kelly tidak bunuh diri, dengan menerbitkan surat di The Guardian pada 27 Januari 2004 (lihat tautan di Annex), menjelang publikasi Laporan Hutton.
Surat itu langsung mengarah ke judul percikan “Apakah Dr Kelly Dibunuh?” Di The Evening Standard kemudian di hari yang sama, meskipun para dokter tidak menyarankan itu.
Malamnya, meskipun keamanan belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya untuk mencegah kebocoran seperti itu, Laporan Hutton bocor ke Matahari.
Jadi, alih-alih judul The Evening Standard menjadi cerita utama di media arus utama keesokan harinya (hari di mana Hutton Report diterbitkan), kebocoran ke The Sun menjadi cerita utama.
Lord Hutton dan Tony Blair dikatakan marah dengan kebocoran itu, dan penyelidikan segera diperintahkan untuk mengidentifikasi sumber kebocoran tersebut.
Beberapa bulan kemudian, laporan penyelidikan itu diam-diam diterbitkan dan hampir tidak diperhatikan; dikatakan bahwa tidak mungkin untuk menetapkan sumber kebocoran.
Tidak mengherankan, banyak yang curiga bahwa sumber kebocoran itu tidak lain adalah 10 Downing Street itu sendiri.
Tiga dokter asli kemudian bergabung dengan dokter lain, dan pengacara, dan, sebagai hasilnya, lima surat lagi muncul di The Guardian pada tahun 2004, dan satu di The New Statesman (2 Mei 2005), tepat sebelum Pemilihan Umum 2005.

Tanggapan untuk Lord Hutton
Oleh
Drs. Stephen Frost, Christopher Burns-Cox dan David Halpin
Tuan yang terhormat
Lord Hutton memimpin penyelidikan yang berusaha untuk membagi kesalahan antara BBC dan Pemerintah atas “bunuh diri” Dr David Kelly ketika tidak ada “putusan” bunuh diri yang telah (dan masih belum) tercapai. Laporannya secara luas diberi label “cuci putih”, karena dia dianggap membagi kesalahan itu secara tidak adil (mengingat bukti yang dia dengar), semuanya kecuali membebaskan Pemerintah, dan menyalahkan hampir seluruhnya pada BBC. Sekarang, dalam suratnya yang diterbitkan di Times (3 November 2006), dia tampaknya berusaha untuk mempertahankan laporannya dengan menetapkan kasusnya tentang hal-hal kecil dari “klaim 45 menit”.
Lord Hutton melewatkan poin penting. Terlebih lagi, tampaknya dia digunakan oleh Pemerintah untuk menumbangkan proses hukum dalam menetapkan dengan tepat bagaimana Dr Kelly meninggal.
Kami dan beberapa rekan medis lainnya (dan pengacara) mencoba dalam serangkaian enam surat yang diterbitkan di The Guardian dan satu di New Statesman untuk memberi tahu publik, dan pers arus utama, bahwa semua dokter belajar di sekolah kedokteran bahwa, untuk mengembalikan “putusan” “bunuh diri”, seorang koroner harus membuktikan bunuh diri tanpa keraguan yang masuk akal (tingkat bukti yang sangat tinggi), termasuk “niat” Jika Koroner tidak dapat mencapai tingkat pembuktian yang diperlukan, dia diwajibkan oleh hukum untuk mengembalikan “putusan terbuka”, dengan asumsi bahwa “permainan kotor” pada awalnya telah dikecualikan dengan cara yang tepat. Sayangnya, ada beberapa keraguan apakah “permainan kotor” dikecualikan dengan benar dalam kasus Dr Kelly.
Namun, mengabaikan kegagalan seperti itu dalam kematian profil tinggi seperti itu, penting untuk dipahami bahwa publik diundang untuk percaya…
