President Bush said on March 13, 2006

(8th paragraph before end of speech)

"Earlier this year, a newspaper published details of a new anti-IED technology that was being developed. Within five days of the publication -- using details from that article -- the enemy had posted instructions for defeating this new technology on the Internet."

Chris Plant on WMAL 630-AM just said that this refers to a Los Angeles Times article from February 12, 2006 titled "Bomb Buster For Iraq Hits Pentagon Snag"

Could a Freeper with more experience than me check and see if this is on FR yet and is getting out on the internet?
