Germany's labor minister says he is resigning from the Cabinet amid the fallout from an airstrike in northern Afghanistan that already cost the head of the armed forces his job. Franz Josef Jung was defense minister at the time of the Sept. 4 airstrike, which is believed to have killed civilians, but acknowledged this week that he had not seen a German military report and videos on the attack. Jung said Friday he was resigning to take "political responsibility." (AP Photo/Gero Breloer)
