Question

Why did hitler hate jews..?

Answer 1

Well, I'll give you a short (maybe not so short) history on his childhood, so you can decide why you think he turned out the way he did )why he hated jews.)

There are many stories about that, lots have been repelled and some are very accurate. The most accurate conclusion to why Adolf Hitler was such a terrible person was believed that he had a strange and terrible up-bringing. His father (Alois) was a very abusive man. His abusive spirit is believed to have orriginated from his military-retirement in 1895 (when Hitler was 6) and became a very strict, mean man. His mother loved him very dearly, and he and his mother had a very emotional attatchment to each other. His father constantly abused the boy, because he thought he was getting far too much attention from his mother and that his siblings weren't getting the same amount. When Hitler was very young, his half brother passed away, and the house he lived in overlooked the cemetary, which may have shaken him. When he was 13, his father passed away. He had always dreamed of being an artist, and didn't do well at all in school. In 1905, (he was 16) he quit school and never returned. In 1907, he applied to the painting school at the Vienna Academy of Art. He didn't pass the entrance exam, and tried again in 1908, and was not allowed to retake it. 2 months after that, the dear loving, caring mother he'd always relied on and loved passed away, from what they believe was breast-cancer.

All the death and abusing he wittnessed in his life was almost definitely the cause of his mean-streak.

After he was rejected, he lived in Vienna for four year selling his art and living off that money and the small inheritence from his mother. During then, he became very influcenced by pan-Germanism. He moved to Munich in May, 1913 to avoid the Austrian army, but when World War 1 broke out, he asked for and recieved special permission to be in the Bavarian-German Army. In a nutshell, he was a very good soldier and was awarded many honours. In October (13th), 1918, he was temporarily blinded after a gas attack. While he was in the hospital, he recieved news of the end of the war, and Germany's defeat. He was so angry, and his feelings of betrayal were so strong, he changed his and the world's future forever.

Adol Hitler started out, well, good in a way. He wanted to be an artist, and it was a shame he didn't make it into that school to become 'Hitler the peaceful artist' instead of the most evil man that ever lived. Based on what I wrote above, you can decide what you think caused him to be such an evil person. In a way, I also believe he may have been possessed, which may have caused his hatred to so many others. Or maybe he was trying to impress the world, since this was that whole time of racism? Who knows.

I hope my brief history helps you, and feel free to e-mail me or whatever if you need to know more.

Answer 2

Initially,he probably did not hate Jews but at that time Germany was in great financial difficulties and inflation was very high,so like many leaders before (and since) he needed to lay the blame on an area not of his party.  He started with communists,gypsies and trade unionists but as the situation still became worse, he opted for a "soft" target,..the Jews.

So the hate campaign began and a desparate,hypnotised people took it on board to the point of hysteria and the rest is bloody history.

There is a lesson in all this when your/our leaders refuse to acknowledge their own failures and shift the blame on to another race,religion or culture.
