You realy couldn't make it up...

Israeli police have had to restore order at one of Christianity's holiest sites after a mass brawl broke out between monks in Jerusalem's Old City.

See this BBC article for further details.

The Shao Lin lot may have some competition:-)

Wonder if 'mass brawl' was an intended pun?

:D

Can anyone come up with a new version of Kung Fu fighting by way of a somg cheallenge?

There were monks in Jerusalem
There were monks all over town
They were swinging censers round
They were knocking them down...

:D

Oh, he's out pounding the pavement again, looking for work. And signing autographs, of course.

Isn't this the famed "rumble scene" from West Bank Story?

When you're Orthodox, you're Orthodox all the way
From your first cigarette, to your last dying day...
