Palestinian gunmen attack American school in Gaza
Palestinian gunmen stormed the American International School in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip on Saturday, smashing windows, seizing computers and torching buses but causing no injuries, security sources said.
In a leaflet left behind after the attack, the gunmen claimed affiliation with al Qaeda and vowed to attack other symbols of "immorality" throughout the coastal territory.
...The school has been a frequent target for militants. Three days ago, gunmen claiming ties to al Qaeda fired a rocket-propelled grenade at the building during a visit to the region by U.S. President George W. Bush.
In 2006, two teachers were kidnapped from the school by gunmen, prompting all international workers to leave.
