“Bishop, I hear the frustration, and I won’t pretend every voice coming out of Jerusalem is measured. Some speak too loudly, too possessively. But Judaism isn’t an excuse; it’s a memory of exile and return that has lasted longer than most empires. For many of us, the land isn’t conquest; it’s the only place where we were ever allowed to stop running. I don’t defend every policy, every settlement, every excess. I only ask for the same nuance you would want for your own Church’s long history of power and error.” — Džana Todosijević
