HITLER question.......................?????????

Question

why did hitler hate jews?
ive read so much about him, but there seems to be no reasons for him to have hated jews..

ellediabolica, im talking about having a logical reason to hate them. your explaination is not logical.

Answer 1

Concerning hitler there exists a lot of folklore involved, even in his biographies where he is depicted as a mild mannered or exemplary child but after he moved to Munich he became more mentally unstable and this is what I consider the reason for his so called hate-rid towards the Jewish people.
The true reason for his animosities towards Jews, we can only speculate on it's roots. The only person who can tell us that is hitler himself.
But I suggest that you find out yourself and try reading his book 'Mein kampf' for you to extract your own conclusions, cause many of those who try in giving you an answer view hitler from a anti- or pro- position thus directly influencing your own conclusions. This is my advice as I try not to influence you.

Answer 2

Yes logically there is NO reason for this hatred, just as there is no reason for the KKK to hate blacks, or for the rich to hate the poor. It is a superiority complex. Ironically he must have felt SOOOO inferior, to hate like this. Hitler was insane, possessed even.
The only answer I can come up with is this:
God called Israel the chosen people. And scripture even states that the Jews would be persecuted. And they were, look at Exodus. In many other places in scripture and history this persecution documented.
Leviticus 26:33 states, "And I will make your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries into desolations. - And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which dwell therein shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you among the heathen, AND I WILL DRAW OUT THE SWORD AFTER YOU: and your land shall be desolate, and your cities waste." This was after Israel's repeated disobedience.
God said, "A sword shall go out after the Jews."
The Jews have been persecuted as no other race on the face of the earth. Their persecution by Hitler, in recent years, is the cruelest recorded in all history.
As awful as it was, really Hitler was just part of Gods plan.
& I am sure that leads to many many more questions.
Hope that helps

Answer 3

Excellent question,

You're right, there is no "logical" reason he hated jews, and there is still no logical reason people hate jews today, unless you're palestinian or something, then i may understand.

but i think that hitler just played the "jew card" in order to give people a scapegoat, because many christians have had negative feelings towards jews since the middle ages.

that's because jews invented certain business practices such as money lending and charging interest.

christians often hated to have to pay back the interest and they thought it was immoral. early christians even were prohibited from lending money and charging interest, which is why the jews entered that field of business in the early days first, then later the christians followed as they became less "religious."

so those bad feelings stem all the way from the middle ages and hitler used them to incite hatred against jews and then turn that hatred against the rest of the world.

Answer 4

Many of the posts here are right to say that he is a racist but most of the speculations here are purely myths.

Hitler all along believed the Germans to be a pure race and the best in the world. He also believed that "pure white europeans" (Aryans actually) belong to the same group of ancestors which only this group of people are smart enough and are the ones who developed civilizations and other races, inferior. Being a military man enhanced his beliefs.

The Jews were therefore not his only targets for hatred, he hated the chinese, japanese, blacks, etc with a vengeance as well. The Jews were only unlucky that they were "readily available" in Germany and the areas annexed during his reign. During the end of the first war, he blamed the Jews as he believed that a pure group of Germans would not have lost the war, he blamed them for his imprisonment. He simply believed himself to be a 'purist', disowning any jewish links he might have.

His beliefs are further help by a bunch of archaeologist employed by his reign headed by Assien Bohmers (Danish geography major turned archaelogist) who shared his beliefs. While myths and folklore filled his "knowledge" on archaeology, further studies and excavation works done after his appointment filled in the rest of the void.

Although Bohmers later found out that he was wrong in his beliefs that Aryans build the world's civilizations, he continued to feed Hitler false results and this had helped to strengthen his belief of pure German Aryans.

With all this "truth" that hitler knew, it just build up his desires to get rid of the inferior races, if the WW2 had not ended then and there, he would have, as recorded in his diaries, turned against the japanese and take China and Asia and Africa and build his ideal world of purist Aryans.

Answer 5

There's been speculation that his grandmother or mother was raped by a Jewish employer and Hitler's a quarter/half jew himself. His childhood wasn't happy and this unhappiness followed him till his adolescent years. Having experienced hunger and poverty, an unloving home and a rejection from an art school, he became increasing bitter while Jews were enjoying great success as businessmen and well-paid professionals.

By the way, to sidetrack a little, do you know that after Hitler died, the Germans didn't even bother to build a monument for him? His grave is, to this day, unmarked and his burial site is presently a carpark for an apartment block.

Answer 6

There are alot of reasons or speculation as to why hitler exactly hated the Jews...for one some people say that it was because when hitlers mother died she had a jewish doctor and he felt that the Doctor didn't do enough to save her...But the biggest reason to me was that hitler felt that the Jews were the reason for so many religious problems. To him they were the reason Jesus was dead, Alot of people forget but Hitler was very religious. He was a devout christian who attended church. He felt like he was doing Gods will, which u can find reference to in many of his speaches.

Answer 7

Hitler was an underprivileged Austrian boy (yes, he was NOT German, Hitler was an Austrian!). His parents were not even married and so-called bastards had a hard life then. Moreover, his mother was a half-Jewish.
Jews on the other side were always very industrious, busy, rich. They ruled the financial markets, ran own shops and traded gold and jewellery.
Most of all, it was pure hatred and jealousy.

Answer 8

There was and is no specific reason why Alois Schickelgruber hated Jews. (Hitler was his stepfather's last name.) His writings make clear that it was an obsession with him, but not based on any early encounters with Jews in Austria or anywhere else. Here's a discussion of the point: http://www.kimel.net/hitjew.html

Like many others before and since, he was frustrated by his own inadequate performace (as an artist, at war . . .) and resented the intellectual and financial successes of Jews. Thinking of such things as zero-sum games, he thought of Jews -- foreign to his conception of Germanic Europeans -- as social parasites and thieves. (Hey, the proven Russian forgery, the Protocols of the Elders of Zion now so beloved of Arab TV and propaganda outlets, was there years before him.)

So Schickelgruber had this to say:

"My views with regard to anti-Semitism succumbed to the passage of time, and his was my greatest transformation of all.

"Gradually, I began to hate them ( the Jews)....For me this was the time of the greatest spiritual upheaval I have ever had to go through, I had ceased to be a weak-kneed cosmopolitan and become an anti-Semite."

Answer 9

It was accepted my the Germans to 'eliminate' jews because of their political influence. Hitler believed that Jews were a poison and must be abolished. However, many Poles died during WWII, as well as some Germans.

Answer 10

he hated many people. I don't know if he hated them so much as was using them as scapegoats. If there are problems and you want to absolve yourself and get everyone behind you, you need a solution and someone to blame. Enter the Jews as scapegoat and Holocaust as the solution. Get rid of Jews and Gypsies and anyone else who is not like us because they cause all the despair and poverty in the world. You repeat this enough until people start believing it. How else do so many people go along with something so heinous. He also believed in a master race. Anyone who did not fit into his view of the master race had to be disposed of. The master race belief also fit into his propaganda to get people to go along with this terrible act. World War I destroyed Germany physically, economically, and mentally. The people wanted something to believe in so badly I think that they didn't care if it was something horrible.
