The New York Times reported first on the unclassified version of the report which had been privy to the 9/11 commission. None of the warnings pinpointed to what would happen on 9/11, and the government had not completed "a review of the 120-page report ... until recently," AP reported.

The Times quoted the report which said aviation officials had been "lulled into a false sense of security" and "intelligence that indicated a real and growing threat leading up to 9/11 did not stimulate significant increases in security procedures."

The Times also said that the Bush administration is blocking the full release of the report which also illustrated the measures taken by FAA officials who were "more concerned with reducing airline congestion, lessening delays, and easing airlines' financial woes than deterring a terrorist attack."

AP reported among other findings in the report -

-A proposed rule to improve passenger screening and other security measures ordered by Congress in 1996 had been held up by the Office of Management and Budget and was still not in effect when the attacks occurred, according to the FAA;

-Information in this report was available to members of the 9/11 commission when they issued their public report last summer. That report itself contained criticisms of FAA operations.
