Israel defence minister says resigning after Gaza ceasefire

    Jerusalem, Nov 14 (AFP) Israeli Defence Minister Avigdor Lieberman announced his resignation on Wednesday after a sharp disagreement over a Gaza ceasefire deal, throwing the government into turmoil.
    "What happened yesterday -- the truce combined with the process with Hamas -- is capitulating to terror. It has no other meaning," Lieberman told journalists.
    "What we're doing now as a state is buying short-term quiet, with the price being severe long-term damage to national security." (AFP) AMS
