Drudge last night on his radio show said that the White House leaked this. Looks like Kerry & company felled right into it.
Only question I have is who is the Defense official attributed to the following in the NYT piece?
"At the Pentagon, an official who monitors developments in Iraq said U.S.-led coalition troops had searched Al-Qaqaa in the immediate aftermath of the March 2003 invasion and confirmed that the explosives, which had been under IAEA seal since 1991, were intact. The site was not secured by U.S. forces, the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity"
