I have heard conflicting answers to this question. If possible, i woukd love to read Hitlers own words, or from contemporary Germans, why they hated the Jewish people.
I understand this type of thread can be controversial and volatile. I ask that we can keep respectful and kind. While controversial, this is also a legitimate historical question wirth pondering. Especially because it is rarely discussed from Hitlers point of view. Right or wrong, i want to know what HE felt about tge Hewish people. I would greatly appreciate any help, as it is difficult to find it in the dozens of speeches he made..
My personal note is that, while i do notice the amount of Jewish people in positions of power, my opinion of them is very high. They are hard working, family oriented people that treat me in my business very well! In fact i wish Christians learned a bit from them!
Pardon all my disclaimers. I just want some good clean historical information. Any you provide woukd be much appreciated!
If you read Mein Kampf you'll have a better iea.
Hitler did not like the idea of a group of people bound by a united identity, yet living in a society and largely kept to themselves without contributing to the good of society. Some words he used to describe them included parasites and leeches. He felt that a culture built from the ground up was a lot more respectable and important than people who were piggybacking on it.
Jews also rose to the positions of power during his time. Germany was undergoing massive inflation due to the Treaty of Versaille in WWI and Jews were the perfect scapegoat.
