Obama to Receive Report on Failed Airline Attack

December 31, 2009

President Obama is set to receive a preliminary report Thursday detailing what warning signs were missed before a 23-year-old Nigerian who was already on a terror watch list boarded a plane to Detroit armed with explosives.

The president declared Tuesday that a “systemic failure” on multiple levels allowed the suspect to board and said he should have been on a “no-fly” list. The preliminary report is the administration’s first step in trying to reform both airport screening and the terror watch list system to prevent a repeat of the Christmas Day incident.
