I think he blamed them for just about evrything. Genrany was in economic turmoil after the First World War and Hitler pointed the finger at the Jews for causing, or at least benefititng from, the inflation, unemployment, etc.
Psychologically, it's a good trick. Find a minority who can't fight back, and hold them up as a common enemy.

Hello,<BR /> yes Adolf Hitler made much political capital and political progress from castigating the Jews (and not just of Germany and Europe, but of the World: a similar view to the Protocols of Zion viewpoint).<BR /><BR />I do feel, though, that as a 'discussion group' we would benefit from placing the anti-semitism of the Third Reich within a broader and more long-term European context.<BR /><BR />For example, have a go at these: what earlier political and cultural upheavals in Europe lay behind Jewish migration and resulted in many Jews settling in Germany and 'eastern' Europe in the first place? What pre-existing cultural stereotypes and myths was Hitler taking advantage of when he ranted against the Jews of Germany? <BR /><BR />What roles were played, in relation to the suffering of Jewish people, by the other European states during the Nazi's period in power? What happened and why, for example, in France, Scandinavia and Britain?<BR /><BR />Did Hitler's viewpoint strike a cord with pre-existing anti-semitism in Poland, the Baltic states and the Ukraine?<BR /><BR />Later in our discussion we could bring things up-to-date and make the discussion far wider still, by looking at ourselves and considering: what is it about the human condition that renders us prone to sterotyping, prejudice and, ulimately, genocide?<BR /><BR />Cheers. I look forward to hearing from you soon.<BR /><QUOTE' USER='gezaehaile' USERID='2068505'>Hitler killed many Jews during the secon world war.I want to make a discussion on how Hitler developed the enemity with these people.</QUOTE>

Hi durutticolomn,<BR /> I'll responsed to your last paragragh. What is it about the human condition" etc.<BR /><BR />We as a species are very insecure within ourselves and as individuals we can only surpress that insecurity by putting down others with the resulting events throughout history.<BR /><BR />Also known as bullying, however lets have a deep and meaningful discussion<BR /><BR />Regards<BR />Spike <BR /><BR /><QUOTE' USER='durutticolumn' USERID='2115402'>Hello,<BR /> yes Adolf Hitler made much political capital and political progress from castigating the Jews (and not just of Germany and Europe, but of the World: a similar view to the Protocols of Zion viewpoint).<BR /><BR />I do feel, though, that as a 'discussion group' we would benefit from placing the anti-semitism of the Third Reich within a broader and more long-term European context.<BR /><BR />For example, have a go at these: what earlier political and cultural upheavals in Europe lay behind Jewish migration and resulted in many Jews settling in Germany and 'eastern' Europe in the first place?

Hi gezaehaile,
Despite being in Europe for many hundreds of years. Jewish people never really assimilated themselves into their host country. Most Jewish people think of Jerusalem as at least their spiritual home. I have several friends who are 3rd or 4th generation Americans of Eastern European extraction. When it's time for a toast it's, " tomorrow in Jerusalem. Most Jews marry Jews. These and other reasons cause animosity among other citizens. In pre WW2 Europe it was not the host country's language spoken at home. Chances are it was Yiddish. Hard work,frugality,above average intelligence, the lifelong pursuit of knowledge education, are Jewish traits. As a result Jewish people are very successful in the arts and professions. I think Spike has hit the nail on the head., Human nature being what it is people feel threatened and are jealous by others success and prosperity. Hitler did not have to develop these feelings, they were right below the surface. He simply tapped into them.It's sickening to think it may be happening again.

Expat,
we had already many discussions on these boards about this item. I think you have summarized in a very short way what it was all about. Thanks for that.
One of my conclusions and also of some others, but not that many as the opponents, was that Hitler was just a "sounding-board" for what lived among people and by his vocal aptitude was able to let it grow behind any proportions. Of course he too was against the Jews, but there were in my opinion more like him with the same extravagant ideas among the Austrian community where he grew up.
And yes as you say: "It's sickening it may be happening again". But, as I know the human nature I am not sure that it can't...
Kind regards.

'I do feel, though, that as a 'discussion group' we would benefit from placing the anti-semitism of the Third Reich within a broader and more long-term European context.'
there was also the context of Darwinianism and eugenics. Easy to forget but ideas on superior and inferior humans were deriger among the psudo scientific community in Europe: witness Sweden.
So H was acting out many of these ideas within the turmoil of total war and milions dying all around.

hello there,
firstly what hitler was eluded by is nothing but historical hallucinations of the highest kind
secondly there is no source or materialistic explanation towards hitlers infatuation of the aryan race
that race dissloved in india and have renounciated their conquests
but this does not remain a historical fact but a myth
if we understand that such scenarios remain in history then asian races would feel inferior in morale
there is something called brushed out history an ARYAN RACE IS ONE OF THAT.
he tried to get that back but failed in misery
