‎אני שולח תנחומים מעומק הלב בשם כל אזרחי ישראל לעולם הנוצרי על פטירתו של האפיפיור בנדיקטוס ה-16. הוא היה מנהיג רוחני גדול ומחויב בכל מאודו להתפייסות ההיסטורית בין הכנסייה הקתולית לעולם היהודי, מסורת אותה הוא המשיך בביקורו ההיסטורי בישראל בשנת 2009.
‎בפגישתי עימו הוא דיבר בחום על המורשת המשותפת של הנצרות והיהדות ועל הערכים המשותפים שמורשת זו העניקה לאנושות כולה.

‎נזכור אותו כידיד אמת של מדינת ישראל ושל העם היהודי.

On behalf of all the citizens of Israel, I send my deep condolences to the Christian world on the passing of Pope Benedict XVI. He was a great spiritual leader who was fully committed to the historic reconciliation between the Catholic Church and the Jewish people, which he movingly expressed during his historic visit to Israel in 2009. In my meeting with him, he spoke warmly about the common heritage of Christianity and Judaism and the values ​​that this heritage gave to all of humanity. We will remember him as a true friend of the State of Israel and the Jewish people.

"There is a common misconception that the good things in life come from being in the right place at the right time. In truth, everything that is good comes from being on the right channel with the right reception.
This is what the sages call z’chut—sometimes translated as “merit.” What it really means is a kind of fine-tuning of the soul.
How do you fine-tune the soul? You have three k***s: What you do, what you say and what you think. Adjust them carefully for static-clean reception."

In part 2 of a Foreign Policy Live discussion with me, Walt looked ahead to 2023 to game out the war in Ukraine, elections in Turkey and Poland, and how protests in China might pan out.
