Firstly, because he was an evil man who needed someone to blame for his own failures in early life.

Secondly, although he was born in Austria, he believed the German race was destined for greatness and that difference races had difference qualities and that some were better than others. Germans were top - Jews at the bottom, everyone else stacked between them.

Thirdly, he went to Vienna as a young man and failed miserably in his chosen career as an artist. The art schools turned him down flat and he needed someone to blame. In Vienna there were a lot of Jews from further east in Europe, who dressed and sounded different to the people he knew - this (in his twisted mind) made them disgusting.

Fourthly, prejudice against Jews was fashionable in some political circles at the time (not just in Germany) and he latched on to this (which is called antisemitism) because it gave him someone to look down on (he was down and out at the time)and he thought it explained what he saw as wrong with the world. The Jews were in charge and they were trying to ruin everyone else.

Fifthly, he thought the Germans were the best race in the world but they lost WW1 - the only explanation he could come up with was that the brave men in the army had been betrayed by the cowards at home who had surrendered when they didn't have to, because the cowardly Jews had deceived them into it. The fact that there was Jews in the army who were just as brave as anyone else didn't occur to him.

It may have to do with the fact that they were the bankers. In old Jewish law, it was said that they were not supposed to charge interest to a brother. In a sense, that meant ANY other Jew. In Germany, the Jews had been assigned as keepers of the bank, and they charged interest to other Germans but not to their own.

Hitler became famous first for appealing to the economic need. Germany was in trouble and he set the economy straight again. But while Germans were racing to the food market just to buy bread before prices rose again, Jewish Germans saved money because their law forbade them from charging each other interest. And the fact that they knew how to save money only made them look worse in the eyes of others.

It was Germany's own fault that the people hated Jews. They were the ones who assigned them with the banking job, and they were the ones who didn't control what they spent before the crisis. Jews have, for the most part, been successful. Ancient laws keep them safe and help them live long, healthy lives by giving them a healthy lifestyle. Even the food restrictions, which seem unnecessary to the rest of the world, protect them from many types of food poisoning and illness (those were lifted later, probably because doctors learned to treat such illnesses, but many Jews still follow them, whether they know the laws protect them or not). Laws about cleansing themselves, such as washing their hands before meals and keeping sick people away from everyone else (which took millenia for the rest of the world to learn) kept and keep disease from spreading. And other laws, like cancelling debt every 49 to 50 years and not charging interest to each other, keep them from sinking into the depths of financial dispair.

It's no wonder everyone else hated them for getting ahead in life. How could it be that they were doing so much better, unless they were the cause?

Hitler gives his reasons in a little read book called Mein Kampf.

It is a classic chapter for psychoanalysts and psychologists. The upshot of it is that it kind of struck him one morning. Here is one relevant passage, but I would recommend you read the whole chapter.

"There were very few Jews in Linz. In the course of centuries the Jews who lived there had become Europeanized in external appearance and were so much like other human beings that I even looked upon them as Germans. The reason why I did not then perceive the absurdity of such an illusion was that the only external mark which I recognized as distinguishing them from us was the practice of their strange religion. As I thought that they were persecuted on account of their faith my aversion to hearing remarks against them grew almost into a feeling of abhorrence. I did not in the least suspect that there could be such a thing as a systematic anti-Semitism.

Once, as I was strolling through the Inner City, I suddenly encountered an apparition in a black caftan and black hair locks. Is this a Jew? was my first thought. For, to be sure, they had not looked like that in Linz. I observed the man furtively and cautiously, but the longer I stared at this foreign face, scrutinizing feature for feature, the more my first question assumed a new form: Is this a German? As always in such cases, I now began to try to relieve my doubts by books. For a few hellers I bought the first antiSemitic pamphlets of my life. Unfortunately, they all proceeded from the supposition that in principle the reader knew or even understood the Jewish question to a certain degree. Besides, the tone for the most part was such that doubts again arose in me, due in part to the dull and amazingly unscientific arguments favoring the thesis. I relapsed for weeks at a time, once even for months."
(Mein Kampf, vol. 1, chap. 2: "Years of study and suffering in Vienna")

If only he had relapsed forever...

Because they are hoarders! That has been their problem and the reason they had been exiled out of every country from the beginning! Hitler merely decided not to pass the problem on but to take care of it once and for all!

1) because other people did (peer pressure)

2) he got the notion that all jews were rich and successful, and was jealous, he wasn't remember, and that jews did not contribute to society, for instance, fight in wars.

he then caught onto this idea (which was not new) that there was a jewish conspiracy to control the world

because he thought that germans lost the first world war because of the jews, he had immense love for germans n thus he hated all the jews who he held responsible for the loss of germans.
