Resident of Nazareth beheaded old British leader (7)
I believe the answer is:
israeli
This might be a double definition.
'resident of nazareth' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'beheaded old british leader' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for israeli that I've seen before include "Citizen of a country 'born' in 1948" , "Inhabitant of Tel Aviv, say" , "One from the Middle East" , "From Jaffa, perhaps?" , "Relating to a Mediterranean nation" .)
