IRAN

That this House notes the Prime Minister's oft-repeated comment that the overwhelming majority of terrorist plots in the UK have a connection with the Afghanistan and Pakistan area; further notes that most of these are connected to Pakistan not Afghanistan; further notes that there is no evidence of a connection between terrorist plots in the UK and Iran; and considers that any attempt to justify military action against Iran on the basis of such a connection would be the equivalent of the 45-minute use claim in relation to Iraq's weapons of mass destruction.
