[0:03] Tonight, US [music] airport security is
[0:05] put to the test and fails miserably. How
[0:08] agents managed to get [music] components
[0:10] for a bomb right past the screeners.
[0:14] I'm Katie Kurrick. Also tonight, the
[0:16] very latest on the Blackwater [music]
[0:18] investigation. The FBI finds the
[0:20] shooting of 14 Iraqi civilians was
[0:23] unjustified. But will anyone [music]

[1:16] travel season.
[1:17] >> No, not by any means, Katie. It's a
[1:19] troubling report. The new government
[1:21] investigation proves that six years, six
[1:23] full years after 9/11, US aviation
[1:26] remains a vulnerable target.
[1:28] In the years since British intelligence
[1:30] uncovered an al-Qaeda plot to blow up
[1:32] USbound airliners with liquid bombs,
[1:35] millions of passengers have been forced
[1:36] to dump their shampoo, drinks, and
[1:38] mouthwash at airport checkpoints. But
[1:41] the new GAO report obtained by CBS News
[1:43] shows
