The Senate's report on pre-war intelligence on Iraq (news - web sites) will focus only on misjudgments by the CIA (news - web sites) and other US agencies and sidestep the issue of how the White House used the intelligence.


The 410-page report is expected to be released on Friday, but it will not include a second phase of the year-long investigation that will focus on how the White House used the assessments from its intelligence agencies on Iraq, Congressional officials told the daily.


The second phase of the investigation involving the White House will likely not be completed until after the November 2 US presidential election, the officials said.


Republicans and Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee reached a deal in February to divide the inquiry in two parts as a compromise between the views of the top Republican on the committee, Senator Pat Robertson, and the top Democrat Senator John D. Rockefeller.
