No suicide bombings to my knowledge, I believe "knee-capping" was their tactic of choice. They would set up an appointment, shoot up your knee, and leave you as a cripple. They would also go after your family if you didn't show up for your maiming. I believe you are correct that they called in bomb warnings, but they weren't always accurate.
The point is that terrorism isn't strictly a Muslim thing and that Christians are equally capable.
