This report is one of the first analytical assessments of the work of the United Nations Counter-terrorism Committee, which was created by the Security Council in September 2001. It analyzes the changing responsiveness of member states to the reporting requirements of the resolution. It also explores trends that have led many members to call for strengthening the committee’s institutional capacity to respond to member requests for reporting assistance and for increased training in the procedures called for by SCR 1373 and international treaties.

As officials investigate the controversies surrounding missing evidence in Iraq, it may be useful to analyze the assertions that were made about weapons of mass destruction and terrorist connections in Iraq, and the information that was available to refute those claims. In this report we present the publicly available data that U.S. and UK leaders chose to ignore in the pre-war debate. It provides a clear picture of what could have–and should have–been known and what should have been balanced against other more secretly obtained data on Iraq.
