The world's economy was in the toilet, but the situation in Germany was at the bottom of them all largely because of the reparations they were supposed to pay as a result of WW I. Hitler and his group looked for and found a scapegoat in the Jews. They needed someone to blame for Germany's economic woes. Since the Middle Ages, Jews were thought to be Jesus' murderers, and they were forbidden to own property in much of Europe, so they went into what was allowed, the trades and into banking. The banking interest made it easy to blame the bad economy on them. This gave the Nazi's a cause and a pathway to the power they wielded in Germany and all over the world. Had it not been the Jews. it would have been some other group.

Don't forget, also killed in the Holocaust were the physically and mentally impaired, Gypsies, homosexuals and Jehovah's Witnesses. Had there been more Jehovah's Witnesses to blame things on, the Jews might not have been Hitler's target.

Well someone wanted to make a website about the holocaust, and so holocaust.com came into being ;-)

Did a little someone not know how to spell holocaust and copied and pasted a bit too much?? ;-)

the route cause of the holocaust was a shortarsed Austrian bloke with a massive inferiority complex and a silly little tash!
