"The dossier is good and convincing for those who are prepared to be convinced," Powell said in an email addressed to Scarlett.


"The document does nothing to demonstrate a threat, let alone an imminent threat from Saddam," said the email -- dated September 17 last year -- exactly a week before the dossier was published.


"It shows he (Saddam) has the means but it does not demonstrate he has the motive to attack his neighbours let alone the West," Powell said in the email.

On edit: Wrong Powell. My bad.
