why did Hitler start killing Jews ?
453153
Because at that time, Jews were the popular scapegoat for any problems, so it was natural to blame them. Even now, some fanatics out there still think that Jews control the entire world and are plotting to kill everyone. For these people, a war against Jews is good, and necessary. And Hitler used these people.

I am taking a holocaust class in collage. The way I understand it is that Hilterand the germans blamed the Jews for everything. Losing the war, denying Jesus Christ, and they had the best shops and house that money could buy. He had that took from them. To help u out a little more go to www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org.

Hitler would have succeeded in his first Final Solution. No Jews, therefore no Israel. This would have made the Muslims very happy. Until Adolph started using America's vast resources to bomb them off the face of the planet. He wasn't just anti-Jewish you know. He was a full-blown anti-Semite and that means Arabs and anyone else who followed Allah.\n\nAfter he rid the world of these two "vermin" races, he'd have knocked off the Slavs, although by that time, having used them as slave labor for several years there wouldn't be all that many left.\n\nThen the Chinese would'a got theirs. They'd have still become Commies and the only thing Hitler hated more than Semites was Commies.\n\nAfrica would have had their turn at a bloodbath next, because in 1936 he showed just how much he hated blacks.\n\nThen South America would be genocided because it has polyglot races and he was all for racial purity.\n\nThen he'd turn his attention to North America for the same reason and depopulate Mexico, Canada and the US.\n\nFinally he'd bump off any remaining Catholics and all non-Aryan Protestants in Europe.\n\nOne thing's for sure. If Hitler had won, there'd be no overpopulation problem. He'da whittled the numbers down to less than 50 million worldwide.\n\nThen he would have given parts of the world the size of old Spanish land grants to his buddies in the Reichstag and helped them to repopulate said areas with their slaves.\n\nTHEN, he'da found an excuse to declare war on the new owners and wiped them out.\n\nIf he lived into his 90's, he'd probably have succeeded in wiping humanity off Earth, not to mention wiping out most other lifeforms as well (all those nukes doncha know).\n\nWhat a great future..........if you happen to be anaerobic bacteria, that is.

first hitler was not jewish (there are rumors that his grandmother was). Hitler was born in 1889 as a fourth child to a succesfull Austrian customs officer. at the age of fouteen his father died and at the same time he droped out of school. Four years late hitler left for Vienna. IN Vienne Hitler soaked up exterme german antionalism which was strong in vienna (even though it was in austria). these extremeists strongly believed in a uninon with the germans and a violent expolusion of the "infrior" races. Hitler was impressed wit the maoyr of Vienna and his anti liberlism and anti capitalism. From Lueger and other hitler obsorbedmuhc anti-semitism, racism and hatred for the slavs.  He wanted to destroy the jews because of his distorted view of Social Darwinsim (survival of the fitest) believing that with the destruction of the infirior races he insures the survival of the german race. \nANother reason for his hatred were his anti capitalist and anti liberalism views. He cliamed that the hews directed an international conspiracy of finance cpitalism and MArxian Socialism against German colture, german unity, and German race. \nwhen Germany lost World War I, heartbroken, he cliamed that the jews had stabed Germany in the back. He promised to fight back...the Allies and the jews. \nHitler believed in the "aryan race" which was a german supriority of the rest of the world. He believed that the jews, the slavs and many other, would impure the german race. \n\nwriters note: i am a jew, and orthodox one. Today is holocaust momrial day. to day we remeber to never forget the horrible things that happened in Europ during the second world war. But the sad thing is that we ignore these things. IN the 1990's many serbains died in an attempt at genocide and today in Darfur many inocent people, womens and children and being murdered every day with the Sudanian government doing abslutly nothing and even supporting it. MAN CANNOT REPEAT HISTORY!!! NEVER FORGET!!!\n\n"Never again shall we march like sheep to the slaughter\nNever again shall we sit and take orders\nStripped of our culture\nRobbed of our name (never again)\nRaped of our freedom and thrown into the flames (never again)\nForced from our families, taken from our homes\nMoved from our God then burned of our bones\nNever again, never again"\n-----Wu Tang Clan, Remedy  \n\n-David

There were thousands of good decent jews rounded up, put on trains, sent to concentration camps and killed cruelly, heinously!  Nevermind how many. Nevermind those who conveniently "forget".  Hitler  was a dictator who ran Germany.  He was an insane man with senseless prejudices that blue eyed blonds are superior to brunettes and that jews should be annihilated.  Whole families were called to come...they knew not for what.  There were constant calls for certain people. When their names were called they were ordered into one of the buildings, told to disrobe and get into the showers.   If they were lucky, water came through the shower over their head. People who escaped the worst reported that men who ran the showers would play with freezing and boiling water, on people, but this was relatively kind.  When they weren't playing with the water, they had the gas jets on and people were killed.  Trenches were dug. Hundreds of bodies in a spot were thrown in on top of others.  Meanwhile loving family members were separated with no control over it at all.  And their only "crime" might be that they were jewish.  And the dictator, Hitler, in his insanity considered killing jews his right.\nI was an American in my teens living on the east coast, and I met a woman in her 20s with an accent I was unused to. She told me about being in the showers, and about the night she would have been killed in them with gas only she and her boyfriend had a chance to escape on bicycles and they did and they succeeded, and they  came to the United States and got married.  What I know, I "experienced" through her first hand description. But she was rare. Countless thousands of them never had a chance. She was jewish. Since then I have met many people,  a lot of them Germans who emmigrated to this country who insisted  Hitler wasn't so bad, and this mass slaughter did not happen. They were people who never would have been threatened with the ovens,  they were citizens of Germany and whatever they wanted me to believe they felt strongly about it.  It made Germany's fearless leader look bad,  Since then I have seen moving pictures on tv, taken from life --giant piles and thousands of these nude bodies in heaps  thrown from trucks down big slant shoots, and not acted by actors,  this was real. I have seen this repeatedly.  Even while watching this horror I have heard  Americans decide to accept the (fiction) viewpoint and insist everyone around them believe it. People can believe what they want. I value the truth, pretty or ugly.\nPeople like to fictionalize history a great deal, on many sujbjects. \nThey not only fictionalize the truth but they cite a contrived fiction of yesteryear and get multimillions to believe it for political reasons, for $$$ reasons, and aftter a time for majority reasons. And  then if you have a mind of your own appreciate it but keep your own council, unless asked for the truth.\n  That shameful example of Man's inhumanity to man is  in this case, the truth.  Don't let it be swept under a rug and don't let it happen  AGAIN\nagain.

Hilers reason were murder, genocide and to get more realestate to expand the German empire, plain and simple, he had no valid reason to march into Poland to rid it of the Jewish people there as he saw it, to save the Polish people from themselves by purification of the race. He did the same to Vienna. Even is our motive to go into IRAq was to secure oil, in getting Sadam out iof power was a good thing, and if innocents are killed by airstrikes or just renegade Marines, then's that non combatant fatalities for you, there are no innocents in war.

It was the killing of people of Jewish decent by people of Christian decent.  People who were Jewish were killed if they did or did not subscribe to a particular relgious tradition, and most of the people who did participate in the Holocaust were Christian.  I am not saying that there were not heros of all religions at the time- but there were Christian who did kill.  \n\nThat said- Christianity does have a lot of blood on it's hands, as do many religions.  Crusades, Witch Burnings, and Genicides.  They are even happening today... a religion doesn't protect it's followers from turning evil.

Actually it was started by the assassination because of alliances throughout Europe that caused the war to spread like wildfire.  The assassination was by a Serbian Nationalist and A-H was alied with Germany etc so the alliances drew Europe into the war. Other than that, European countries were searching for expansion of trade and land to acquire wealth and resources and saw war as a away to gain these.  Had Germany won, they would not have been forced to pay $33 billion in reparations that damaged their economy and lead to the uprising of Adolf Hitler who rallied the Germans behind resentment over the Treaty of Versailles for causing the economic depression and wanted to demilitarize Germany and gain wealth through expansion and acquiring resources across Europe which led to WW1... along with his anti-semitism.

I'm sure you know he started out as a painter in love with a Jewish girl who would not have him. Inspired by his anger he touched the already unstable athmosphere of the day in Germany. Many German people felt the Jewish people, who I might add were mostly economically stable and well off, were stuck up, and that they were taking all of the jobs etc.... After that he joined a group a lot like the KKK and started speaking out from there. Eventually, he convinced enough people to follow him. In the meantime, this group (sorry I forgot the name) began storm trooper like activities which scared a lot of people (Jewish people). They began a campaigne of scare tactics, first to get german boys and men to join, then to terriose the jewish people. Many German soilders started off not having to much hostility towards the Jew's, then after tortureous activities, many became scared to speek up, because eventually the non-racist germans were in the minority. However, some remained loyal to their hearts and some sheltered the jewish families, mostly the children, but if caught would be put to death. \n\nHis rise to power became a reality because he spoke equilantly, and was full of bull.

The Nazi's wanted to be the dominent race and rule the world. The Jew's were an easy target. The Nazi's viewed them as inferior and were determined to wipe them out. It didn't work. There were a lot Jew's killed but the Nazi's died out. The Jew's are still here.

even though Hitler was not German he wanted to create a perfect race. He wanted to kill all homosexuals, gypsies and jews. His program was to make Germany a powerhouse country and to slowly make his way through Europe and take over. A lot of people actually believe that Hitler was not an evil person, a lot of people think he was a lunatic. I have even heard that the holocaust was over played, and I have heard that Hitler's primary goal was to get rid of all the "trash" and build the perfect world.

It was up to Hitler to ask for forgiveness for his sins.\n\nnobody else can do that for you.

He beleived the "Aryan race" (Caucasian) was superior to all other races and that to establish thier supreiority, they needed to be the ones owning the businesses and land and everything. However, when he tried to og about doing this, everything was owned by Jews. He then wrote Mien Kampf, which basically outlined his core beleifs about te Jews and that they were robbing germany and the rest of the world of all thier money and land etc.\n\nSO ... he decides to kill every Jew possible. Forces them out of their lands and homes and put them in concentration camps and everything - and succeeded in killing over 6 million jews. He also wanted to take over the world at the same time so he was invading all of europe and suceeding very well, until the USA joined the war.\n\nThats my knowledge on it! Hope it helps

Hitler did not all of a sudden say, 'Hey, lets band everyone together by hating Jews.' The hatred of Jews in Europe goes all the way back to the time it became Christian. Passages in the Christian's New Testament paint "The Jews" as being the children of the devil, hypocritical, and interested only in money rather than in Gd. \n\nWho wrote the following???\n\n"""But since I learned that those miserable and accursed people do not cease to lure to themselves even us, that is, the Christians, I have published this little book, so that I might be found among those who opposed such poisonous activities of the Jews and who warned the Christians to be on their guard against them....Now, in order to strengthen our faith, we want to deal with a few crass follies of the Jews in their belief and their exegesis of the Scriptures, since they so maliciously revile our faith. If this should move any Jew to reform and repent, so much the better. We are now not talking with the Jews but about the Jews and their dealings, so that our Germans, too, might be informed....Our Lord also calls them a "brood of vipers"; furthermore, in John' 3:39 he states: "If you were Abraham's children would do what Abraham did.... You are of your father the devil." It was intolerable to them to hear that they were not Abraham's but the devil's children, nor can they bear to hear this today.... For they are a heavy burden, a plague, a pestilence, a sheer misfortune for our country. Proof for this is found in the fact that they have often been expelled forcibly from a country, far from being held captive in it....Therefore be on your guard against the Jews, knowing that wherever they have their synagogues, nothing is found but a den of devils in which sheer self-glory, conceit, lies, blasphemy, and defaming of God and men are practiced most maliciously and veheming his eyes on them.......but then eject them forever from this country. For, as we have heard, God's anger with them is so intense that gentle mercy will only tend to make them worse and worse, while sharp mercy will reform them but little. Therefore, in any case, away with them!"""\n\nIt was Martin Luther, one of the founders of the Protestant movement in Christianity!
