Kiesling's letter of resignation, in which he used phrase Oderint dum metuant, may be found in the Congressional record, on Page E363-E364 (Extensions), where it was entered March 4, 2003 by Representative Fortney Pete Stark.

You can find a transcript of it on the Federation of Scientists website (FAS), under menu header "Congress", then under "Floor debates 2003".

People should probably read what Kiesling had to say if they're going to discuss it.

[> [> [> Kim, thanks for the "suggestion" but I read that article a few days ago already. Nevertheless, people throughout history have had feelings or made decisions as Kielsing have made and in some cases they later regretted their decision and realized they were wrong and in other cases they were happy that they made such a decision. Bush is the president and he is responsible for protecting US citizens, not the UN, not Turkey, not France, who helped with Afghanistan by providing 4,500 troops and whose General Lafayette helped the Colonies in their fight against British. -- William, 14:53:20 03/10/03 Mon (cache-dq01.proxy.aol.com/205.188.209.133)
