Both. That is to say that the official program of killing instituted in Hitler's Germany killed people of both Jewish and non-Jewish backgrounds. It could be argued that the organised extermination program had its orgins in a scheme to 'put to sleep' physically and mentally disabled patients in medical institutions. As such, it might be said the the concept seemed to arise in the medical community at the time. This suggests that the notion of state-sponsored genocide did not arise in the mind of one or two people in the Nazi party (a perspective that we might find less disturbing), but was the ultimate expression of a social policy that was debated and supported by large numbers of people in professional and government circles.
The 'Action T4' program of euthenasia (started before the war) involved the killing of an estimated 200,000 people. Many of these would have been 'aryan' blue eyed blond people. You would also have to note that a considerable number of honourable German citizens opposed Hitler and were executed by his regime.
The question of whether Hitler ever killed anyone 'personally' (apart from himself) has arisen elsewhere in Yahoo Answers. There is very little reason to distinguish between the responsibility borne by a Dictator who authorizes murder as an instrument of State Policy, and a person who kills with his (or her) own hand. Both are killers.

Hitler mostly killed Jews (though some Germans still denied the holocaust). But he wanted to have his idea of the "perfect" society where everyone had blonde hair and blue eyes.

Hitler killed all races...He was particularly fond of blonde hair and blue eyes,which he considered the super race.It is odd that he killed so many Jewish people due to the fact he was a bastard Jew himself.Bastard being born out of wedlock.You might want to read Mein Kampf.It is book about his life through is own eyes.....He never forgave his own mother for being with a Jewish man.

Adolf Hitler wanted an Aryan nation and thought that the blue eyed blonde represented the perfect purity of a race. They were his models for the perfect race.
While Hitler did indeed kill Jews and half-Jews, he also massacred Germans (who didn't agree with his beliefs), Poles, Austrians, Czechs, etc...

Hitler did kill German unionists and socialists. I have to believe that some of them were blonde Aryans.
However, the vast majority of people killed by the Nazis were Jewish -- along with gypsies, Africans, homosexuals, some Slavic people and Jehovah's Witnesses.

I think it was mostly the jews, and other people he disliked, and just anyone who had gotten in his way....he wanted to kill Albert Einstein because he wouldnt tell him the atomic bomb secrets. Sadly I am a blonde haired, blue eyed german....which I hate!

Denmark, for occasion, had a large share of "Aryan-looking" Jews who have been made to positioned on the yellow famous person of David armbands. however the Danish Royal relatives have been outraged by using this and desperate to positioned on those armbands too, which inspired maximum of Denmark's inhabitants to place them on. this dazzling prepare of unity made Denmark have between the backside expenditures of Jewish persecution of any of the occupied countries. yet do not overlook, extermination replaced into not Hitler's first selection for the Jews. the unique plan replaced into to around them up and deliver them off to an island including Madagascar. Hitler in basic terms needed the Jews out of Europe and extremely German Reich territory as he blamed them for Germany's defeat interior the 1st international conflict. in spite of if, with the invasion of the U.S. and different jap eu countries the huge contingent of Jews that got here under Nazi administration made this impossible. subsequently the "very final answer" replaced into born.

Are you serious? Are you ever paying attention in class? How about watching the history channel or Public television once in a while? Go rent "Schindler's List"
He ordered the deaths of Jews, Romany, gays, mentally disabled, and any he thought was imperfect.
Incidently, Hitler had jewish ancestry.
