[本期導(dǎo)讀] 美國航空安檢再度面臨嚴(yán)峻挑戰(zhàn), 近期一起內(nèi)褲炸彈事件再次成為焦點(diǎn). 本期節(jié)目選自"CNN American Morning", 是主持人Randi Kaye對(duì)美國國土安全部部長(zhǎng)Janet Napolitano的關(guān)于事件最近進(jìn)展的采訪, 時(shí)間約3分半.

CNN has learned the device carried on to the flight was powerful enough to blow a hole through the side of the plane. We also know that the suspect now in custody was already on our radar.?

So how did he get through and does the government need to do more to keep you safe in the air? Here for the "A.M. Breakdown" Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. Good to see you, secretary.

JANET NAPOLITANO, U.S. SECRETARY OF HOMELAND SECURITY: Good morning.

KAYE: First let me ask you, what is the latest on this investigation? Have you been able to learn any more about this suspect's alleged ties to Al Qaeda?

NAPOLITANO: No, that's under investigation through the criminal justice process. What we are doing is going backwards. How did this individual get on the plane? What didn't work in the screening procedure to pick him up? And why was the material he was carrying not picked up in the screening procedure as well?

KAYE: And that's what I wanted to ask you about because as CNN has learned, this suspect had enough explosives to blow a hole in the airplane, bring that airplane down. How is it that eight years after 9/11 this guy was allegedly able to bring these high explosives on board in his underwear?

NAPOLITANO: Well, your experts must know more than ours do at this point in time who are ascertaining exactly what the material was, where it was on the plane and what effect it would have had had it been detonated. But that doesn't excuse the fact that it was on the plane.

And with all of the procedures we now have in place, now we've instituted new procedures moving forward, and we were able immediately upon the passengers apprehending this individual, to institute procedures for even for the planes that were already in the air so that moving forward, we could provide additional safety in the air environment. But we need to go back now, and the president has asked us to, to do a thorough review. These are procedures that have been in place since the shoe bomber in 2006, what needs to be updated, improved, upgraded to see that this doesn't happen again.

KAYE: You have said that throughout this, the system worked smoothly. What exactly worked in your opinion?

NAPOLITANO: Yes, that's a phrase taken out of context. What I said is, moving forward, meaning once the incident happened, we were able to immediately notify the 128 flights in the air, as well as airports on the ground domestically, internationally. Our law enforcement partners, our other allies, institute immediate safety procedures to make sure that this could not happen on other flights and that people were watching out for it on other flights, even as we focused on what went wrong prior to this one.

KAYE: So you do recognize that it didn't work smoothly leading up to this?

NAPOLITANO: Oh, obviously it didn't. No secretary of Homeland Security would say that.

KAYE: If screening can't detect these kinds of threats, at least the screening that we have now currently in the United States, is it up to us, the flying public, to protect ourselves and the rest of those on board an airplane now?

NAPOLITANO: Well, you know, security is something that we all have a part in. We are looking at the technology. We have deployed new technology in some airports. The question is, would it have detected this material and the way he had hidden it on his person.

We're ascertaining that. We're ascertaining why it was that he was not flagged in a more specific way when he purchased his ticket, given the information that we think was available, allegedly was available. And that's moving forward, we need to go backwards and say what happened here, what do we need to change, what do we need to do to make sure are that passengers are safe moving forward.
