But he went on to say there were 'inhibitions about the Jews' and 'jealousy of their success'.Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play?

Thanks. I was not aware of all that information about his family.
Hitler probably believed that England would be an ally in the war. The abdication of the king probably had more to do with his Nazi ties than his wife's history as a prostitute.

--IMHO, Prince Phillip of Battenberg has a less dubious record during the run-up to WW 2 than the Queen's Uncle Eddie, Duke of Windsor--
--Churchill, et al, had to cover up his near-treason and ship him off to the Bahamas in exile to save the reputation of the "royal" family--

Am I the only one who doesn't see why this is news worthy?

This is reaching to say the least. Were Prince Phillip of Greece and Lord Louis Mountbatten (to give them their titles at the time) not supposed to attend the funeral of their sister and niece?
To: freedom44
In 1937 WW II as two years away. Diplomatic protocol required people at funerals to be there with odious people from other countries.

and who knew what was going to happen to the regime?' Maybe reading Mein Kampf might have given the Prince an idea where Hitler was headed.

Neville Chamberlain played ball with the Nazis too.

Philip stressed that he was never 'conscious of anybody in the family actually expressing anti-Semitic views'. But he went on to say there were 'inhibitions about the Jews' and 'jealousy of their success'.European royals b*tching about successful Jews. Geez...
To: freedom44
They should also mention that his mother, Princess Alice hid Jews in Greece during the war and is officially listed in Israel as one of the Righteous Gentiles. Also, after 1933, Philip left Germany for good and attended Gordonstoun in Scotland, which was founded by a virulent Hitler-hating headmaster.

There are too many who would deny the truth to sell books or in their hatred of England pretend that they were nazi sympathizers.
There were many people here in the US with far worse opinions of the jews and far more admiration for the nazi's.

The Duke of Windsor was the real Hitler-lover of the family, which is often forgotten by the media which idolizes his "style" and ignores his (and his wife's) lack of substance.
For all its faults, Kitty Kelly's book, The Royals, does a fairly good job in explaining the Windsor's German roots and the Masterpiece Theatre "Bertie and Elizabeth" does a nice job of portraying English royalty during WWII.

Prince Phillip bore arms and risked his life in battle for Crown and country. That is all you need to know or understand, the rest does not mean a damn thing.

This British hanged "Lord" Haw Haw after WWII whereas there is considerable belief that the US would have let him live if we had tried him on treason (he was an American born immigrant to England who became an English language Nazi propaganda broadcaster in Germany).

Anti Jew sentiments were once quite the fashion in bourgeoisie WASP circles. They were just too pushy and lean and hungry, and didn't call it a day at 5 pm. The film footage of the ovens ended all of that.

I don't know about Hilter, but Ted Kennedys daddy sure thought we should have backed the Nazis over England and he wasn't shy about saying so.
As if one needed another reason to despise the Kennedys.

I don't think Hitler would have counted on such an outcome.
Allying with a Nazi Germany about to overrun Europe would conflict directly with the traditional British policy of maintaining the "balance of power" in Europe.

Joe Kennedy didn't like the English, but Jack loved them. Go figure. Jack I guess was more assimilated.
