Was hitler a jew?

Question

i heard he might be of jewish descent, and if it is true that hitler is a jew, that would be jacked up a racist killing the same race!!

Answer 1

Some research posits that Maria Schikelgruber had an illegitimate son, Alois, by the Jewish aristocrat for whom she worked. Alois, later in life, petitioned to have his surname changed to Heidler which was misspelled in the official document as Hitler. His son, Adolph, would, therefore, be 1/4 Jewish.

Answer 2

Hitler was not sure who his paternal grandfather was, but it was probably either Johann Georg Hiedler or his brother Johann Nepomuk Hiedler. There have been rumours that Hitler was one-quarter Jewish [2] and that his paternal grandmother, Maria Schicklgruber, had become pregnant after working as a servant in a Jewish household in Graz. During the 1920s, the implications of these rumours along with his known family history were politically explosive, especially for the proponent of a racist ideology. Opponents tried to prove that Hitler, the leader of the anti-Semitic Nazi Party, had Jewish or Czech ancestors. Although these rumours were never confirmed, for Hitler they were reason enough to conceal his origins. Soviet propaganda insisted Hitler was a Jew, though more modern research tends to diminish the probability that he had Jewish ancestors.



and here is another source


One of the most frequently asked questions we receive is whether Adolf Hitler was Jewish or had ancestors who were. The idea seems to arise from the remote possibility that Hitler's grandfather was Jewish. Hitler's father, Alois, was registered as an illegitimate child with no father. Alois' mother worked in the home of a wealthy Jew and there is some chance a son in that household got the woman (i.e., Hitler's grandmother) pregnant. Adolf Hitler was not Jewish.



so pick which one you want to believe, it seems to me that it was never confirmed or denied

Answer 4

Hitler's mother was a jew. And hitler was odd anyway, because he proclaimed to be a perfect example of the pure aryan race, when he was austrian, not german. he had brown hair and brown eyes, not the blue eyes and blond hair that he said was perfect.

Hitler was just intelligent. He knew that Germany was in a time of despair, after world war I and the reperations they had to pay due to the war guilt clause of the treaty. The only way for him to come into power, is if he had a scape goat. That is exactly what the jews were. It was obvious that even in a time of hardship they were still faring better than most, so why not blame it on te most succesful. The germans fell into the trap..

Answer 5

Answer 6

In some sources that I've come across they say Hitler may have been half Jewish because his mother was. Whether or not it is true that does not justify what he did.

Answer 7

Hitler was not Jewish (the faith), but he may have had some Hebrew (the race).

Answer 8

hitler was 1/4 jewish, on his fathers side. (his paternal grandmother was jewish). his fathers family changed their last name to hitler b4 he was born. to keep from being killed, he said that u r considered jewish if u r more than 1/4 jew.

Answer 9

He Was Before My Time.

Answer 10

Hitler's mother or grandmother or something like that was Jewish, but he himself was not. Even so, it is kind of weird, isn't it?
