A US report stating Saddam Hussein had no weapons of mass destruction after 1991 should pave the way for Iraqis to sue US-led forces for invading the country, an Iraqi politician has said.


Iyad al-Samarrai of the Iraqi Islamic Party said on Thursday that the report, drafted by the chief US weapons inspector in Iraq, Charles Duelfer, proves the war was "not legitimate".

"All the information available before the war showed that Saddam Hussein had put an end to his programme," he said.

"These weapons were used as a pretext by the US and British governments to invade Iraq."
