I am looking for facts, names, not incinuations. When Hitler was a corporal it was not a nazi Germany, I don't care about KKK, I don't care about anybodyelse's definition of Jew - only Jewish that mother has to be jewish, I don't care about opinions. Any facts?

Answer 3

Please read the book: " Hitler's Pope" by John Cornwell. In Spanish: " El Papa de Hitler" translator: Juan Maria Maradiaga. It is all about Pope Pius XII and the Vatican's attitude in Italy during the 2nd World War. ( some, ( not many) priest and nuns yes, helped Jews to scape, but many priests ( in Italy ) did not. TV shows a documentary film showing all the routes where from Nazi Germany such routes ended always near by a Catholic Church, where the priests there were to help the Nazis to get out toward Brazil or Argentina at the end of the war. The journalists tries to investigate in some of these churches, and were denied the information.

Answer 4

They never served in the nazi's army. Before the nationalist socialist came to power and started persecuting and blaming jews for their woes, they had jews in the military there. (What ranks I don't know, but they were all equals so I'm sure there were Jewish officers.) They actually would have fought for their country, but the nazis didnt want them. How different would things be now?
Hope that helped some.

Answer 5

No full blooded Jews as far as we're aware.
Hitler wasn't part Jewish- that is actually Soviet era propaganda that his true name was Schlickgruber. It wasn't- he was a small-town Austrian whose family had very little opportunity to come into contact with Jews- who tended to be of greater affluence than Hitler's predecessors.
Reinhard Heydrich- an SS Kolonel (I may be mistaken) 'the butcher of Prague'- was supposedly one quarter Jewish- though this may be fabrication too by his competitors.
I would imagine it would be highly improbable.

Answer 6

Yes he did actually have people that had some Jewish decent in them. They did not know themselves until background investigation by the Gestapo he allowed it for his most loyal followers. Remember their were several reasons he picked on the Jews and it was all wrong. These poor people I have toured the camps and it has changed me forever.

Answer 7

In a way, yes - by Hitler's own definition of what it meant to be Jewish, Hitler was Jewish - he was at least one-eighth Jewish by ancestry, or so I have been told. Other than that, no.

Answer 8

There may have been...just as there were regular officers and soldier in the forces.....at least until the SS did background checks.It's possible that the generals were able to conceal their past and to this date may be afraid to admit it for fear of reprisal from fellow Jews.
Even some American prisoners were falsely accused as being Jewish....because of circumcision...which was popular in the U.S.
So they resorted to crude blood tests and names.

Answer 9

none that i have ever heard about. historians are not sure whether hitler himself had jewish blood. existing records are not conclusive one way or another.
any jewish members of the military would have been purged early on, but some may have been able to hide their history, but it wouldn't have been easy.
there is some evidence that heydrich may have been of jewish descent several generations back, but it isn't clear.

As a comment, you should never trust "facts" that come solely from Yahoo Answers because you know nothing about our qualifications. I think that the best you can get from anyone on this board is a reliable source for your own further research.
