Israel to Renew Gaza Pinpoint Attacks
2006-12-27
Dec 27, 3:41 AM (ET) - JERUSALEM (AP) - Israel will renew pinpoint attacks against Palestinian rocket-launching cells, but otherwise continue to adhere to a month-old truce in the Gaza Strip, the prime minister's office said Wednesday.

The decision to renew operations against militants came after two Israeli teenagers were seriously wounded by rocket fire from Gaza on Tuesday night.

Militants have fired more than 60 rockets at southern Israel since the cease-fire, brokered by the moderate Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas, went into effect on Nov. 26.

#2  Israel will renew pinpoint attacks against Palestinian rocket-launching cells, but otherwise continue to adhere to a month-old truce in the Gaza Strip, the prime minister's office said Wednesday.

Hmm. Perhaps a use of "doublespeak" against the doublespeakers? If critics whine that pinpoint attacks against those launching rockets is, in reality, breaking the truce, then the response can be a demand to explain why the PRIOR rocket launches ttempt to launch the rocket is NOT a breaking of the truce?
