TONY Blair today reveals a dossier to justify war on Iraq - but there is not one "killer fact" proving Saddam Hussein is an immediate threat. Mr Blair presented the 50-page document at a tense two-hour Cabinet meeting last night in an attempt to bolster support on the eve of its release to MPs. Major Charles Heyman, editor of military bible Jane's World Armies, said: "It does not produce any convincing evidence, or any 'killer fact', that says that Saddam Hussein has to be taken out straight away."
