I've seen many of the "highlights". Unfortunately, most of it is about fingerpointing and avoiding blame (from those in office prior to 2001, anyway). Those that came aboard after 20 January 2001 have been more likely to say something logical, while accepting responsibility for their shortcomings (real or imagined).
I keep coming back to the question in my mind: "If you knew so much in 1998, why didn't you do something about it?" The previous administration claims to have had a lot of knowledge, yet in so many words admit that they just sat on it and tossed it all to George W. Bush to handle.
There is plenty of blame to go around. However, as far as intelligence is concerned, it not a science (Intel). Unless someone had an infallible crystal ball, I don't see where there was an "intelligence failure" as regards 911.
