Extremist Islamic group believed behind Gaza Christian bookstore bombing
By:    
Published: April 15, 2007   
 
A bookstore run by the Bible Society in the Gaza Strip was bombed early Sunday, in an attack by a suspected Muslim 'vice-squad.'

Two Internet cafes were also badly damaged, although no one was hurt in the early morning attack.

A relatively unknown extremist Islamic organization called the "Swords of Truth" has claimed responsibility for a recent string of similar attacks on Internet cafes and music shops

Gaza has a small Christian Arab community among an increasingly Islamicised Muslim majority.
