Hitler was a smart man which is why i cant see the reason of his mission? can someone explain i am pretty sure everything is connected. Why Jews were the majority !!

Answer 1

Hitler's main ideological aim was the extermination of the Jews and others he saw as inferior, the 'untermensch' (including homosexuals, Roma gypsies, people born with disabilities both mental and physical etc) and replacing them with Aryan supermen; the 'ubermensch'. His military aim was the domination of Europe (and, given enough time, the world) by Germany.

Historically, Europe has had a very spotted relationship with Judaism: Medieval jews were persecuted as the murderers of Christ (the old Roman ritual even mentions them as 'perfidious jews') and Judas, as the great betrayer, became a symbol of the stereotypically 'evil jew' in art and literature (red hair, a hooked nose, interest in money/taxation). The sterotype is exploted/referenced by Shakespeare (Merchant of Venice), Moliere, Dickens and many others.

Hitler's hatred for the Jews and Germany's alliance to this manifesto was a complicated issue. It tied in with lots of theories popular at the time...evolution and racial adaptability (Darwin), theories of a super-race (Nietzche) and a sense of humiliation after Germany lost WW1. Hitler was manipulating/manipulted by some very primoridal emotions...the fear of 'otherness', epitomised by the closed societies of Judaism, a sense anger (he was born into a poor family and spent much of his early life in poverty) and the idea that one group of people, the Germans, were singled out for a higher purpose (something they shared with Judaism actually...).

The blue eyes and blond hair are markers of what Hitler considered the Aryan race, the Northern European. Whether you agree with him aesthetically or not, biologically there is no proof for any of his assertions of genetic superiority amongst 'Aryans'. Neo/Nazism has lasted so long because the issues it taps into still exist today...and let none of us forget it.

Answer 2

First off don't go thinking that the whole thing happened because of just Hitler alone.

One man does not single handedly murder 11 million people. You need a bit of help for a project like that.

Making it the work of one man is a way of ignoring the historical forces involved and not facing the nasty truths.

The German people willingly went along with the pogrom. They claimed afterward that they really didn't know, but no one can live down the street from an incinerator burning humans without knowing that was what was happening. Someone had to work in those camps, and it can't be they didn't tell other Germans what they did every day. Trust me on this: everyone knew, and those who insist otherwise are describing an impossible world.

As far as the blond hair and blue eyes? It was a madness based on the idea that the Nordic races were somehow the underdog civilization chased out of Europe by the darker Mediterranian people, for whom Jews and Gypsies were easy shorthand. Many many germans were blond blue eyed, so it was a handy unifying image. Plus which, for whatever crazy reason that still prevails even in our own nation, blond hair and blue eyes has a genetic desirability.

Really, the forces that caused Hitler's rise were economic and sociopolitical. The German people had just come through a massively failed economy, the Weimar Republic, and corporate fascism promised them (and for a moment provided them) with an economic remedy. On the geopolitical side, Germany had been defeated in several previous wars and the people needed to feel the power of their militarism reasserted.

It is of great historical interest that the main rallying cry to the German people to back the new Fascist state was the burning of the Reichstadt building, said to be an act of terrorism (but later turned out to be an inside job), which brought the dispirited and fragmented germans together to defend the Homeland, and made the establishing of a police state and the conduct of the Lightning Wars of venegeance desirable to the public.

Answer 3

Hitler was trying to establish an Aryan( pure white) world. A world where the blond, blue eyed person rule.

Hitler felt some people just did not fit in that dream and thought they were human surplus(more than was needed) so he had them killed, ie. the holocaust.

Hitler, like many people throughout history, had a deep hatred for the Jews. Blaming them for the troubles of the world. Look up the history of the Jewish people and see how they suffered horribly under the nations.

NOTE ****Hitler was NOT a smart man.****

Answer 4

The whole role and concept of what Hitler was trying to achieve is far to much to record here and I would suggest studying some articles about his life and achievements. However you do mention a few specifics so I shall try to answer briefly.

1 The 'Holocaust' was the term used to name Hitler's policy of the systematic eradication of the Jewish people. Despite the fact that his closest advisor was half-Jewish and there had been Jews in his family, Hitler had won the support of the German people by blaming all the country's ills on certain sectors, the Communists, the Industrialists, the Intellectuals, the homosexuals and, most of all The Jews. He set about eradicating all these groups but because the Jews were, by far, the largest group, the emphasis has been on their fate, rather than the others. All were equally persecuted. Hitler gave free rein to the commanders of the death camps, Belsen, Auschwitz and so on, and millions died there.

2 Aryan supremacy. Hitler believed that the Germanic people were descended from the Aryans and all officers, Gestapo members and high officials had to prove their ancestry across three generations before being allowed to join. One of the theories was that the Aryans were, originally, blue eyed and blond haired, so anyone with these qualities was specially treated including being sent to 'love camps' where they could father more of their kind. They were known as 'the Master Race' and Jews and others as 'untermenschen' (under people, akin to animals).

3 Lebensraum. (Living room). Hitler promised the German people that he would regain all the confiscated territory that Germany lost in WWI including the Sudetenland, Alsace-Lorraine, Prussia and parts of Poland and Czecoslovakia. Much of his theories and policies were set out in his book ;'Mein Kampf' (My Struggle) which was written by Rudolph Hess on Hitler's dictation when they were both in prison in 1923. Even back as afr as that time Hitler blamed the Jews for most of Germany's troubles. There is a theory that his step-father a certain Herr Schickelgruber, who treated Hitler badly as a child, was, himself a Jew, and thus stoked up Hitler;s hatred of the Jews whilst still a child.

Basically Hitler was a meglomaniac who wanted to rule the world, or at least as much of it as he could. Privately, however, as confirmed by Herman Goering on his capture in May 1945, Hitler realised that the war was lost following the D-Day Normandy invasion of 6tyh June 1944 but kept Germany fighting to the bitter defeat of May 1945 and his subsequent death by suicide.

Answer 5

Hitler's goal was to rule the world. He intended to establish a Third Reich (third empire) to rival Rome (the first empire) and the Holy Roman Empire (the second). German Aryans would be Ubermenschen (supermen) ruling over non-Aryan Untermenschen (subhumans). It was supposed to last 1000 years.

He used hatred of Jews, Gypsies, communists, and any other non-Aryan fringe groups to unite his people in a common cause against all races different from themselves. He did this because anti-Semitism and fear of communism were widespread in Germany and the rest of Europe. Much easier to use an already entrenched prejudice, and nudge it along with a few well-placed lies.

History demonizes Hitler - but he was only telling millions of Germans and other europeans what they wanted to hear.

Answer 6

There is just no easy answer or explanation for this.
It goes WAY deeper than people think. Hitler wasn't just crazy.
It wasn't just Hitler. It wasn't only the Jews.
If you really want to go deeper into this subject, find some good books about it. Here are two that deal with more than the usual Third Reich History:

"Spear of Destiny" by Trevor Ravenscroft
"Rise And Fall Of The Third Reich" by William L. Shirer

Answer 7

because Hitler wanted a Germany without Jews and only Germans

Answer 8

It was an interaction of reasons. Firstly he wanted to establish the 'Aryan' race (blone, blue-eyed, tall, strong, hard-working etc.) and the purity of the 'German blood' (Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Furher = One race/peoples, one empire, one leader). He believed as he said in his book 'Mein kamf' that the stronger should win (Darwin's theorem) and a strong race could only be achieved by purity of blood. This ideology probably grew on him when Hitler was in Vienna. In Vienna he tried to enter the Art School but he was rejected. Due to the ideology in his circles at the time Hitler thought it was the Jews' fault as they were the ones directing and owning all major institutes. His anti-semitism grew and we all know the results.

Come to think of it, his 'dream' was not at all logical since he himself was not originally German but Austrian and he was neither blonde and blue-eyed nor tall and strong. It is evident that he had a complex and there is also a suspicion that his grandfather was a Jew but will never know since his family files were 'mysteriously' destroyed in a fire.

Answer 9

As a poor child Hitler was envious of Jewish wealth and felt like he had been treated poorly by Jews as a child. During his service in the German army in WWI he was especially sensitive to any bullying by superiors of Jewish origin reinforcing his hatred.

Answer 10

Hitler's unique purpose replaced into Lebensraum - lounge for Germany's burgeoning inhabitants. The Munich settlement of 1938 and the Ribbentrop-Molotov %. of 1939 made him cocky and over valuable and he began to think of he replaced into invincible and ought to do what he enjoyed. That replaced into the initiating of his territorial pursuits and his purpose to dominate all Europe. maximum human beings have faith that he additionally dreamt of worldwide domination. quickly the targets of his foreign places coverage have been to take what he needed, whilst he needed it. He had no appreciate for every person's territorial integrity or their stunning to self determination.
