    Alexander Smith, a contractor for the US Agency for International Development (USAID), said he was given a choice between resignation and dismissal after preparing a presentation on maternal and child mortality among Palestinians, which was cancelled at the last minute by USAID leadership last week.

    This is not a resignation, he was (effectively) fired because his slides could be taken as implying the existence of a Palestinian state.
