Britain’s Royal Nazi Cover-Up

Teaching Queen Elizabeth the Nazi salute is nothing compared to what the Duke may have been up to. No wonder Churchill sent spies to Berlin to find records—and destroy them.
Queen Elizabeth has every right to expect that Bad Uncle Edward, who died in 1972, would remain dead and quiet. But now his ghost blunders back into the light to disturb the golden twilight of her reign.
This wretched man, the Duke of Windsor, and before that King Edward VIII and Prince of Wales, has left a curse on the House of Windsor. There he is, grinning, as he tutors Elizabeth, aged 7 or 8, and her little sister Margaret in giving the Nazi “Heil Hitler” salute, in the film clip released (to much dismay) by Rupert Murdoch’s London tabloid, The Sun.
It should not really be a surprise. The Duke’s own right arm began to twitch early, when he was the Prince of Wales.
