Al-Douri had been Saddam's vice chairman of the Ba'ath "revolutionary council". He also had close ties to Islamists and was reported by Saddam's state-run newspaper in 1993 to have hosted a conference of over 1000 terrorists urging them to "conduct holy jihad against the United States".

The BBC is skeptical of anything said by Bush or Blair, but report uncorroborated claims made by the Ba'ath party as unquestionable truth.
