Cause of Jacob Rothschild’s Death
The sources did not accurately mention the cause of Jacob Rothschild’s death, who is considered a scion of one of the most supportive Jewish families of the Israeli occupation, hailing from a lineage of bankers in Europe and prominent figures whose history dates back to the late eighteenth century.
Since the mid-nineteenth century, the Lord Jacob Rothschild family has been considered one of the wealthiest and most influential families in the world.

Who is Jacob Rothschild and his relationship with the Israeli occupation?
Jacob, who held the position of honorary president of the so-called Jewish Policy Research Institute in London, belongs to the influential Jewish Rothschild dynasty, one of the wealthiest families in the world.
The mentioned businessman was born in 1936, the eldest son of Victor Rothschild, with a net worth estimated at five billion dollars. His family played a “decisive” role in the establishment of Israel and financing its infrastructure.

A Bad Reputation in Supporting the Occupation
Jacob Rothschild and his Jewish family have a bad history of supporting and backing the Israeli occupation even before its establishment.
Among his family members was James Armand Rothschild, who gathered Jewish volunteers within the British forces during World War I, then headed the Immigration Authority to Palestine.
Although he does not speak much to the media, he made sure in his rare appearances to defend the Balfour Declaration.
In an interview with former Israeli Ambassador Daniel Taub, published by “Jewish News” on February 8th, 2017, Rothschild described the Balfour Declaration as a “miracle.”
Rothschild said, “This was the biggest event in Jewish life for thousands of years, a miracle… It took three thousand years to reach this point,” considering the way in which a “homeland” for the Jews was achieved as an “unbelievable opportunity.”
