What did the Jews for Hitler to start the Holocaust?

Answer 1

Im assuming this question is 'what did the Jews do for Hitler to start the Holocaust?'

There are many Historians out there that say that Hitler's main reason for the Holocaust is because his mother was treated by a Jewish doctor (Dr Bloch)and that she died in his care.

This is feeble because there is evidence to suggest that Hitler was eternally grateful for his service and gave Hitler and his sister (Paula) a break with the repayments for their mothers treatment.

Later, Hitler let Dr Bloch leave the country.

In Venice, he befriended a Jewish man called Josef Neumann. Josef helped Hitler sell off his paintings to shop owners, which where mainly Jewish owned shops.

The only adverse result is that Josef and Hitler applied for the same Art college and Josef got through and Hitler didnt.

These events hardly amount to a reasoning of Hitlers actions.

Jewish people have been persecuted for hundreds of years, Hitler was a fan of Karl Lueger and Karl was a fan of Edouerd Drumont.

These people all had strong ani-Semitic beliefs.

Was Hitler brainwashed by their beliefs?

Did Hitler carry out the extermination of Jews because of their influence?

These are corageous statements om my behalf, and I'm open to criticism.

It is almost certainly a mistake to look for some devastating incident in Hitler's early years. It appears that his intense antisemitism didn't arise till World War 1 and the earliest solid evidence dates from 1916, when Hitler was aged 27. (For a detailed discussion of this, see Volume 1 of Ian Kershaw's highly acclaimed biography of Hitler - Hubris, Penguin Books 1998). Take a look at the related question. Please click on link.
