Same Old Shiite..Truce # 12,014 broken by the palestinians
"Israel decided on Wednesday to renew pinpoint attacks against Palestinian rocket-launching cells in Gaza, threatening to end its participation in a month-old truce that was first broken by Palestinians less than one hour after it took effect.
The decision came hours after a Palestinian rocket seriously wounded two Israeli teenage boys in Sderot, a town in southern Israel next to the Gaza border. Shortly after the new policy was announced, a rocket was launched from Gaza, but no injuries were reported.
Although Israel declared it remained committed to the truce, the decision to strike against rocket launchers clearly ratcheted up the violence level.
It could also undermine Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's recent efforts to bolster the moderate Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas, who is in a faceoff against Hamas. The Islamic militant group controls the Palestinian parliament and Cabinet.
Palestinian militants violated the truce within an hour after it took effect on Nov. 26.
Ah, yes. The religion of peace again.
Israel has so far refrained from responding, but Olmert had warned in recent days that his patience was wearing thin. The injuries of the two boys late Tuesday increased the already intense pressure on Olmert from political opponents and members of his Cabinet to take action.
Here is some 'responding' I would recommend, considering this has been going on for 60 years:
......don't worry, nobody has the guts to do what is required (yet)
Hamas government spokeswoman Ghazi Hamad denounced the Israeli decision to "continue their aggression against our people," but added: "We still believe that this agreement is alive, and both sides should respect this agreement because it is (in) the interest (of) our people.
Got it, Hamas. You rocket Israel, and they sit tight = PEACE. Israel surgically targets known terrorists = genocide.
