And it wasn't that long ago that a British general (Mike Jackson) refused to carry
out Wesley Clarkes order to attack the Russians at the airport.

So it is not unheard of.



Re his speaking out in public, in some ways I think frank and forthright

His comment at the hearing, the most diplomatic way of handling it
that he could ? Or as someone said, to send a message ?
