Answer 1

K Godel was not Jewish but had many Jewish friends and colleagues and hung out with A Einstein when he came to the IAS in Princeton. Godel was theistically inclined and was
eager to escape the nazi regime.

Answer 2

There are unpatriotic individuals in all nations, including the USA. All that anti-American hate given by Americans who wouldnt want to be anything else.

Maybe he feared service, death, or maybe he had moral issues with the government.

Not all Germans were Nazi's, you know. Nazism was the philosophy of the man in power, and those allies he inducted and trained to his cause.

Answer 3

Not every German citizen was an ardent supporter of Hitler and his Nazi party.

He probably didn't want to be "drafted" into their encryption program; he was a mathematician, after all.
