what are adolf hitlers involvements in the holocaust?

Answer 1

He was the head of the Nazi party which ordered it, I dont think it was so much his hatred of jews he was playing on the fact there was a depression and people were poor and struggling except for some of the jewish community, which is why he was able to muster up Germany into a frenzy, by using this as the leverage. Of course non of that justifies what was done. Japan carried out similiar atrocities in China but with about ten million dead in Nanking.

He also apparently blamed them for the Treaty of Versaille which ended world war one but that again may have been media at work to get the country behind the Nazi party

From Wiki pedia
Conservatives, nationalists and ex-military leaders began to speak critically about the peace and Weimar politicians, socialists, communists, and Jews were viewed with suspicion due to their supposed extra-national loyalties. It was rumored that they had not supported the war and had played a role in selling out Germany to its enemies. These November Criminals, or those who seemed to benefit from the newly formed Weimar Republic, were seen to have "stabbed them in the back" on the home front, by either criticizing German nationalism, instigating unrest and strikes in the critical military industries or profiteering. In essence the accusation was that the accused committed treason against the "benevolent and righteous" common cause.

These theories were given credence by the fact that when Germany surrendered in November 1918, its armies were still in French and Belgian territory. Not only had the German Army been in enemy territory the entire time on the Western Front, but on the Eastern Front, Germany had already won the war against Russia, concluded with the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. In the West, Germany had come close to winning the war with the Spring Offensive. Contributing to the Dolchstoßlegende, its failure was blamed on strikes in the arms industry at a critical moment of the offensive, leaving soldiers without an adequate supply of materiel. The strikes were seen to be instigated by treasonous elements, with the Jews taking most of the blame. This overlooked Germany's strategic position and ignored how the efforts of individuals were somewhat marginalized on the front, since the belligerents were engaged in a new kind of war. The industrialization of war had dehumanized the process, and made possible a new kind of defeat which the Germans suffered as a total war emerged.

Nevertheless, this social mythos of domestic betrayal resonated among its audience, and its claims would codify the basis for public support for the emerging Nazi Party, under a racialist-based form of nationalism. The anti-Semitism was intensified by the Bavarian Soviet Republic, a Communist government which ruled the city of Munich for two weeks before being crushed by the Freikorps militia. Many of the Bavarian Soviet Republic's leaders were Jewish, a fact that allowed anti-Semitic propagandists to make the connection with "Communist treason

Answer 2

Hitler's involvement began in writing in his own writing in Mein Kampf, Subsequently over and over he predicted the annihilation of the jewish people if war would start. He , in fact, used the invasion by Nazi Germany of Russia on June 22, 1941 to carry his objective through. According to research, he communicated his decision to his (then) eventual successor Herman Goering end of June 1941. Most historians have speculated that it followed up with discussions with Heydrich and Himmler , and led to the Wansee Conference which established the coordinated efforts of all the Nazi s in the "Final Solution."But prior to that , right on the heels of the invasion of the Soviet Union, there weree several SS outfits who went and conducted mass murder of Jews. In August 1941, there is an incident where they also started killing Jewish children,. From then on, Jewish children were also murdered, approximately 1.5 million Jewish children were murdered by the Nazis. Hitler's siter attributed Hitler's hate of Jews because he was not accepted to the Academy of Painting in Vienne. He , allegesdly according to his sister Paula blamed the Jews for not realizing then his ambition to become a painter.
