Wilhelm James Israel (born December 4, 1881 in Berlin , † 1959 in London ) was a German urologist and surgeon.

Life

Wilhelm Israel was a son of the surgeon James Israel . In 1927 he became a private lecturer in urology in Berlin.

After the National Socialists came to power in the spring of 1933, Israel was removed from civil service due to its Jewish descent, as defined by the National Socialists. He emigrated to Great Britain, where he ran a private practice in London.

In the spring of 1940, Israel was classified by the National Socialist police as an enemy of the state by the Reich Security Main Office on the special wanted list GB , a directory of people who, in the event of a successful invasion and occupation of the British island by the Wehrmacht, would find the following SS special commands with special priority should be made and arrested.
