why you think hitler hated jews so much...???

Question

...we all know that he was behind mass slaughtering of jews in concentration camps...but does anyone know why...???

Answer 1

A lot of the Jews were well off. They worked hard and made a lot of money. Germany was still trying to recover from WWI the Allied countries had made them pay for everything. The world economy was a devastated, we were all in a worldwide depression, and when times are hard we all look for somebody to blame. The Jews had all the money so Germany blamed all of their problems on them. What was even funnier was the fact that so many of Germany's best officers were either Jewish or of Jewish decent. Take the Captain of the Battleship Bismark (the famous one), he was Jewish. Hitler was Jewish. I'm still trying to figure that one out. Has anybody taken into account the fact that he was just plain crazy? Some people believe that replacement theology might have been a factor. Hitler did not just hate the Jews, he just killed a lot of them. Everybody was fair game. Even German citizens were put into death camps because they helped the Jews or who ever was being rounded up. Hey he even sentenced his own officers to death if they messed up something. He was just a mental case, go figure.

Answer 2

Albert Speer, Hitler's Economics Minister, writing after the war commented "He (Hitler) had read a lot but had interpreted all that he had read according to his own lights...without improving his knowledge".

This is however only half-true. In fact Hitler was an avid if rather narrow minded and selective reader, with a particular interest in Modern popular physchology, Political Sciences and Economics. He read the works of Schopenhaurer, Lenin, and Paul de Lagarde (the nineteenth century apostle of the 'leader principle'), and in addition he also read and was influenced by Houston Stewart Chamberlain who was perhaps the most widely known of the late nineteenth century 'Race theologists'.

From these Hitler, blind to rational or critical objections, became convinced that the world was about to witness one of the periodic upheavals of world history in which the survival of civilization could be only be achieved by replacing the traditional breakdown of society into classes, with a society where the importance of 'Race' (or Nation) replaced the class system (which to Hitler benefited only the interests of the bourgeoise and created class envy, the worship of money, and alienated the working classes from the nation).

Hitler wanted the nation to represent a particular kind of community, with 'Race Comrades' instead of classes, and an economy controlled in the name of the people. For this a common blood would be the most defining form of alliegance.

The enemy of these ambitions was, principally, the Jews. At some point at the end of the Great War Hitler absorbed the popular anti-semetic argument that the Jews were to blame for the German defeat, either as marxists preaching an ideology of festering social decomposition, or as capitalists pulling the strings of the world market, or as a biological challenge to the purity of the blood. Thus 'Jews' became a historical metaphor for explaining Germany's troubles and its economic crisis.

So in Hitler's warped political mind the successs of 'New Order' depended upon people being either seduced and mastered, or excluded and eliminated. A view that Hitler maintained until the end.

Answer 3

If you're implying that there IS a reason to hate Jews, then you're wrong.
Hiltler hated Jews because...
1. He was an evil man.
2. Jews are always the target of Satan's darts
It was not because there is a reason, or that Jews deserved to be hated.
All the blame goes on Hitler alone.

Answer 4

Some of these answers are silly, but I have to agree with the guy who said all of Europe hated Jews in this time period. He used them because they were wealthy and successful in a time when most Germans were suffering financially. Supposedly he also had problems with Jews because a Jew kept him out of Art School. More Support is given to the idea that his mother died after being treated by a Jewish doctor and he loved her and thus blamed it on the Jews that she died. Theri is much speculation, but no definitive proof that Hitler was, indeed part Jewish himself. We may never no for sure why he picked Jews to exterminate. Why did he choose Slovenians, Gypsies, Homosexuals, Mentally Retarded, Mentally Insane, Bed Wetters to die?

Answer 5

I think it had to do with his religious beliefs. This may sound crazy but it's true. Hitler and a group of people at the time believed that there was another, better, world in the core of the earth where there were only perfect people (you know, the whole blue eye blonde hair thing) would live. Some people in that group even thought that a look a like of Hitler committed suicide and that Hitler himself escaped to that world in the center of the earth. OK, so it doesn't sound crazy, it is, but the irony is funny.

Any way, the whole Jew genocide thing may have had to do with him protecting this secret world.

Answer 6

He needed a "scapegoat." a common enemy all "good" Germans could hate. Anti-semetism was (continuing) to run rampant in Europe so Jews were an easy target.
He WAS NOT partly Jewish. This has been studied extensively and repeatedly debunked. An in-law of his Father, Alois Schickelgruber, MAY have been part Jew. There is no direct line from this person to little Adi.

Answer 7

Hitler was 1/2 Jewish (either his mother or his father was Jewish). He went to a Jewish art school and was criticized and rejected for his work; he was continuously told that his technique was poor and that he would never amount to anything. Then, he began to notice that the Jews had monopolies on certain indutries and were successful with things like banking and finance. He began to hate the Jewish community, and Jews altogether, because he was ridiculed so much as a young adult---later he thought that the Jews were to blaim for all of the political troubles in Germany, especially after they were forced to pay reparations from WWI. With his rise to power, he turned the Jews into scapegoats. His hate for Jews stems partially from the fact that he found them as an easy scapegoat to achieve his own rise to power, and it was partially externalized self-hate.

Answer 8

Hitler had many reasons for his hatred of Jews. He blames Jewish people for many negative events in his life. Hitler had a very abusive father, who also happened to be Jewish. Hitler was very close to his mother. When his mother got sick she was cared for by a Jewish doctor. When his mother died, Hitler blamed the death on the Jewish doctor. As a child Hitler was very interested in art. He applied to an Art institute but was denied acceptance...I bet you can't guess what the board of admissions was...JEWISH!... Hitler was a very sick man....also a huge hypocrite...seeing that he wanted a perfect race of blonde hair blue eyed germans...non jew. Hitler had dark hair brown eyes and his father was jewish...therefore he was too.

Answer 9

He felt that they were largely responsible for Communism, which was a political force conceived by a Jew named Karl Marx.

He may have also bought into other stereotypes about Jews such as them being stingy, etc. Hitler was greatly influenced by the anti-Semitic speakers in beer halls in his younger days.

Answer 10

Well during WW1 when Hitler was a part of german forces he was to raid a synagogue…this was very important as many soldiers of allied forces were hiding there…but few soldiers of his troops ,who were jews,dint agree to attack as synagogue is their holy place…and as a result the allied forces fleed…and this filled Hitler with a rage against the jews which was visible during 2nd ww…shame on him….
