Queen Elizabeth II and the Jews

Six facts about the monarch’s tumultuous relationship with Jews, on the occasion of her Platinum Jubilee.

It’s easy to pay homage and respect to Holocaust survivors, only a monster wouldn’t. It is also easy to show respect to the Jewish community when they are your “subjects” (a term which, as an American-I truly despise). However, her family was clearly antisemitic for a very long time, and she refused to visit Israel. So the praise from some quarters of the Jewish community is misguided in my opinion. Yes, her reign was impressive, her behavior during WWII was valiant, and her service to her nation is unprecedented. That said, this family has some clearly antagonistic views toward the Jewish community.

“‘lf. Besides her resolute steadfastness in never visiting (Israel), the Queen also made troubling remarks on an official visit to Jordan in 1984. Shown a map of the disputed West Bank, which has been in Israeli control ever since the Six Day War in 1967, Queen Elizabeth called it “depressing,” and described Israeli planes flying in the West Bank as “frightening.” On that visit, she also laid a wreath at a memorial to Arab soldiers who died attacking Israel.’”
