Why did Hitler hate the Jews so much?

This is just some story circulating in Europe, so I'm not sure how true it is. According to some, Jews had rights in Germany as German citizens. However, when called to war, the refused saying they were not Germans, they were Jews. So, that kinda pissed him off - "you're Germans when it's good, but Jews when it's bad" sort of thing. Supposedly this is why he started what he did. I'm sure you know that Hitler himself was half Jewish. Interesting stuff....

He felt they exhibited a tendency toward domination and control,particularly with respect to the media and the judiciary,admittedly primary organs for the purpose of discreet control or influence.

One reason is they supported communism,which were his political opponents. He disliked communists because of how WW1 ended. That is hard to explain here. The Jews controlled the press also. There is so much behind the hate it would require a day at least to write. I'm not defending his acts,but it is a topic I've studied. You could also ask what reason the Jewish leaders had for not helping Jews that they could. The blame for what happened to the Jewish population goes beyond Hitler and the Nazis. Plenty of blame to go around

i doubt that he hated jews i suppose he loved his country as a leader should love his country

He felt they were prone to creating weapons of mass destruction. Fritz Haber invented poison gas warfare which afflicted Hitler; he stated in his book that they would invent a device to waste the planet,so Robert Oppenheimer would have come as no surprise,what to speak of the current plan to turn Iran into a nuclear wasteland.

Because he knew in his head they were going to steal a land in palestine and claim it's theirs!

He had many personal issues,beyond a doubt,but blindness was not one of them.

you are all colors

I don't think that anybody knows why Hitler butchered so many Jews . In his youth he wrote a book that showed his hatred for the Jews . if we look at the population in Germany at that time . we can see a glimpse at what really happened . The Germans all in all were if i'm not mistaken around 20 million . The Jews on the other hand were 9 million out of the whole population . by a simple math you can see that they were 45 percent of the population . which may have angered a lot of Germans who thought the Jews who had another culture have everything while they are the locals don't have anything . apparently Hitler rode that wave to reach power and keep it for himself and only what he had to do is to kill as many Jews as he can and make his fellow Germans happy .

Because he knew how bad they are

He had ample experience of what jewish domination actually means during his Vienna period. And as noted above he did feel they would eventually create an "infernal weapon" - 20's terminology for WMDs - that would wipe out the life of this earth. They long to do so with their nuclear arsenal; there have even been successful popular tunes by zionists singers to this effect. As we sit here now they are preparing for a nuclear war with Iran and possibly Russia.

because he felt, or at least used them as a scapegoat for the economy of germany being in shambles. Nothing brings a country together like hatred of a common enemy.

He was mentally insane...And I heard a rumor also about his being himself of jewish descent...

Anyway, he was probably the tool of the Evil.

Kings and days of old...

Hitler hated more than just Jews...Jews were his primary target because he had access to a number of them in Germany and Europe. But, he also hated Gypsies, Slavs, blacks and many more. If successful, he would have eventually turned on the Japanese who were his allies along with Arabs and every other so-called "sub-human" race.

I have to agree and dsagree with some of your answers.
I do believe he suffered from mental illness. Would we say today he had PTSD from his upbringing? Uncontrolled anger and narcissism being signs and symptoms of said.
The Jew had risen in German society to leadership roles in government and huge business successes. Many were rich.
They were the perfect candidate for the White Supremist to attack and prove their dominance and superiority. The way the world has from the start. As well as planting a firmer foot in the new government.
I think it had a lot less to do with hate as self lothing and self centeredness.

One lala

He was a sick man, it's as simple as that.
He didn't just hate the Jews, he hated anybody that didn't fit his standards, he also killed the gypsies, the gays and the handicap.

Forgive moto t, he is clearly a blind follower of this evil man, just from reading his very first claim I can see that he has simply copied and pasted from a Nazi website, there is nothing physical in hell, hell is spiritual place, it is not hot or cold and there will be no physical suffering.
Some will argue that Judaism does not even believe in hell because the Hebrew word "Gehenom" that is the place of punishment after death is totally different than what Christians call "hell".

The Talmud does not say that non Jews are not Human, Ruth was not born a Jew but her descendant was King David, the Jewish Messiah will be a descendant of Kind David who is a descendant of a convert who according to moto t was born non human?

This guy is the perfect example of how hate drove hitler to spread lies about Jews and make it acceptable to kill them.
This was his way to justify his hate, Jews say this, Jews do that, no basis in reality.

EDIT - I'm obviously not going to reply on every single thing he wrote but this one just disgusts me :

"Jews May Steal from Non-Jews
Baba Mezia 24a . If a Jew finds an object lost by a Gentile ("heathen") it does not have to be returned. (Affirmed also in Baba Kamma 113b)".

This claim disgusts me more than anything because as a Jew I have always been taught that stealing is wrong and that stealing form a Gentile is even worse.

First of all moto t, the verse you quoted is about returning objects not stealing.

About returning a lost object.
Jerusalem Talmud Bava Metzia 2:5 (7a)
R. Chaninah told this story: Some rabbinic scholars bought one pile of wheat from some gentile soldiers. [The scholars] found in it a bundle of money and returned it to [the soldiers]. [The soldiers] said "Blessed is the G-d of the Jews."

In the Midrash.. Devarim Rabbah 3:3
Once, Rabbi Shimon ben Shetach bought a donkey from an Arab. His students went and found a precious stone hanging around [the donkey's] neck. Rabbi said to him [Proverbs 10:22] "It is the blessing of G-d that enriches." R. Shimon ben Shetach said to him "I bought a donkey. I did not buy a precious stone." He went and returned it to the Arab and the Arab said "Blessed is the G-d of Shimon ben Shetach."

Second, the Talmud is based on discussions between Rabbis, you need to provide the whole discussion but then of course we would all see that you have just taken things out of context, anyways, we have the discussions and then we have the law based on them.

Lets look at the law:
Shulchan Aruch (Code of Jewish Law) Choshen Mishpat 348:2
Anyone who steals even a minor amount violates the prohibition of [Leviticus 19:11] "You shall not steal" and is required to repay [the amount stolen] whether one steals from a Jew or a gentile.

Shulchan Aruch Choshen Mishpat 359:1
It is forbidden to rob or to cheat even a minor amount from either a Jew or a gentile.

R. Shlomo Gantzfried, Kitzur Shulchan Aruch (Abridged Code of Jewish Law), 182:1
It is forbidden to rob or to steal even a minor amount from either a Jew or a gentile.

Maimonides, Mishneh Torah, Hilchot Gezeilah 1:2
And it is biblically forbidden to steal even a minor amount; even a gentile - it is forbidden to steal from him or to cheat him. And if you stole from him or cheated him you must return the stolen money or object.

And here - it is worse to steal from a Gentile!

Tosefta Bava Kamma 10:8
It is worse to steal from a gentile than from a Jew because of desecration of [G-d's] name.

This is a great example of a pathetic attempt to misinterpret Jewish laws and values.

Please remember that as Jews our role on earth is to be "a light onto the nations", what are we teaching them if we are behaving as moto claims we are?

♥Tom♥ (I'm a Girl)

He was an evil man why do evil people hate?

Some people want to say blame the Jews for one reason or another and other people want to say Hitler was crazy but those are not accurate answers. First of all, Hitler was NOT Jewish nor was he Christian nor was he crazy. Hitler Jewishness is an untrue rumor, and Christian he surely was not but something he feigned in the beginning and crazy he was not as he was in full charge of his senses he had a plan and was purposefully carrying it out. Crazy people are let off the hook for their actions I do NOT let this man off the hook he is guilty of evil blind hatred. And as far as blaming Jews we were blamed for everything under the sun which just discounts everything out except the fact of our Jewishness.

So let's examine his evil blind hatred for Jewish people.

Anne Frank said this: "Who has made us Jews different from all other people? ...Who knows, it might even be our religion from which the world and all peoples learn good, and for that reason and that reason only do we suffer."

Hitler (as many people do today) have an odd way of looking at "choseness status" of Jewish people as described by Anne Frank. They know we are chosen for something but people do not seem to know what and put their own little weird twists into the description and try to interpret scripture (real or faked from anti-Jewish websites) of which they have very little knowledge. If one wants to know what this actually means then just ask the question please and consider Jewish only responses.

What Hitler did was to evoke his own "chosen" status. The Aryan nation was his supreme race he was attempting to replace the G-d given status with his own Athiest Aryan race status.

He didn't hate us, the man hated G-d's creation. He was an Athiest which isn't a dirty word in itself but in his case it definitely was.
