Read more carefully:

On the basis of Iraq’s known imports and discrepancies in its record-keeping, Unscom and Unmovic (the latter-day inspection body, led by Hans Blix) made some frightening calculations about the chemical and biological agents and munitions potentially at Mr Hussein’s disposal. On the eve of the war, Unmovic reported a “strong presumption” that around 10,000 litres of Iraqi anthrax might still exist.

I am sorry, the Economist is a more credible source than you, and reflects my own recollections of the Unmovic report.

Intelligence is often a matter of "estimates". In fact, as will come out, most of what was alleged was impeccably sourced and interpreted according to existing protocols.......
