According to the Japanese Asahi Shimbun on Feb. 20, he made false information about Iraq's suspected development of weapons of mass destruction in the hope of toppling the Saddam government. It was taken by the U.S. as a reason for the war.

He reportedly went to Germany as an exile in March 2000 and soon accepted a request for cooperation from a German spy chief.

Regarding it as a golden opportunity to expel Saddam Hussein from the presidency, he invented stories about self-propelled biological weapons and secret factories.

He was shocked by U.S. State Secretary Colin L. Powell presenting at a UN session a picture of biological weapons drawn by him in March 2003. After a while, the Iraq war broke out when he was confined in a hotel.
