Was he a mental escape? Or did he have a disorder that made him want to kill people? Why did he think that it was OK?

You have to understand the hatred that he, and people of his ilk had for the Jews, actually for all others. The Reds, Gypsies, Gays, the mentally retarded. It is a thing that has been in the cultural there for generations. They honestly thought that it was a great noble good for all man kind. They thought the destruction of all undesirables would benefit man for all the world. It was not justifiable to kill jews. It was the highest calling. We do not justify saving a baby from a burning building, it is the work of a hero here. In that area at that time, it was heros work to exterminate them. To rid the world of the Jewis question.

He not only felt it was justified but the sad fact is that today there are still people that feel it is justified. They perceive them to be less than a people and not worth living or existing with. When this mentality is rewarded by letting it go there is no end to where it will stop. A lot is religiously bias but with Hitler there was an intense hatred of the Jewish people and when you hate someone enough you can justify anything because you don't see them as human any more and at times don't even care.

There is an interesting movie out called "Max" starring John Cusack. Cusack plays a Jewish art dealer who was trying to inspire Hitler (then an aspiring painter) to find his passion and put that on the canvas. It's an interesting film exploring the passions of humans. I highly recommend it not necessarily as a historical document but as a study of behavior and choice. It also demonstrates some of the political things that were (or might have been) happening at the time in history before and leading up to Kristallnacht.
I'm not even going to try to come up with an answer to your question other than to say that digging deeper into research to find your answer will bring a lot of knowledge and understanding about the Holocaust. There's a lot of information out there, but I think there are more things that can be said.
Good luck to you and...Peace.

Yes, he was completely delusional and clever enough to accomplish much of what he set out to do. Jews did control much of Europe's wealth, mainly through the Rothchilds, so Hitler took a country emerging from a great economic depression and directed peoples anger and envy into an insane frenzy against Jews.
He was a brilliant psychopath with delusions of grandeur and great charisma. Everything he did was a means to an end; fortunately it was not the one he envisioned.

I think he had a disorder, but the use of drugs can mimic disorders. but he was god in his own mind and all was justified to him.
The first site is a more serious site of what took place with hitler and the jews interesting.
The second site is monty python on hitler and puts thing in a brithish since of humor also worth looking at sometimes when it comes to history we also have to laugh and try not to let it repeat itself:-)

He thought that he was the greatest man ,country and power in the world. he was taught that G-D left the Jews for ever something that the Jehovah witnesses Preached from 1914 -2006 that is what mislead him on his down ward spiral to moral destruction.

He believed that if Jew were allowed to live, they would one day take over the whole German race. did he has a disorder that made him want to kill people?...maybe i think, maybe too he was a racist. That is a problem of racism

he was abused as a small child and had a serious oedipus complex going on with his mommy. the reason he felt germany lost the first WW was bcuz of the Jews and their monopolization and presence in Germany. he believed that by ridding all the world of, or at least germany, of jews would bring forth a golden age or third reich of germany.
