Rejected petition Arrange a visit to Israel by the Queen in 2017, the Balfour centenary year
The Queen has never visited Israel during her 65 year reign. Israel is a close ally of the UK and there are numerous family ties. The Royal Family has been invited to visit Israel during 2017, the centenary year of the Balfour Declaration. An official state visit is way overdue!

If the Queen at 90 is unable to go then another senior member of the Royal Family should go
