Hitler attacked others whom he saw as isolated and different as well. (Poor, homosexuals,for example)
However, the Jews were an easy target for several reasons. 1) They were different...in their businesses and in education. They were of high education and they often used education to do well economically, sometimes (though not always) in business.
2) They were identifiable as a group that seemed to do well while many others in Germany were failing..and in economic hardship.
3) Culturally...the Jews were diffeent than the rest of the Germans so is was easier to use they as "scapegoats" ...someone to blame for the problems of Germany. As with many people in many different historical periods, people often like to blame someone else for their problems.
4) Hitler knew human nature. He knew that, by picking out a group to blame for Germanys' problmes, it would be easier for people to come and eventually rally to his side. He was not popular at first. Remember he was a party leader as early as 1922 but it took him 11 years to gain power in Germany.
So...he continually, for 11 years, beat the same drum beat...the Jews are to blame, the Jews are to blame, the Jews are to blame. Finally, when Germany was still reeling from having to pay off the reparations- money to pay for being blamed for WW I, Hitler was able to get the rest of Germany to support him in his anti Jewish efforts. However, remember that there were always a significant number of Germans who didn't go along with Hitler, but...by 1933...they were in a distinct minority..so Hitler was able to take over...and keep blaming the jews.

The biggest fact is that Jewish culture and religion was seeing them as 'chosen people', I guess Hitler could not take this 'arrogance'.
Answer #3He did by far not only attack Jews, but a lot of Jews died under Nazism. Hitler wanted to extinguish in some way all people not beeing according to his Aryan idea like handicapped people, gay people, gipsy, etc. or people not following his ideas like political opponents or religious people not supporting his "i'm your rescuer" like Jehovah's Witnesses. Real answerActually Hitler attacked the Jewish people because he was trying to create a ''perfect'' race and he thought for some reason that the Jewish people weren't aloud in and finally when Hitler attacked and won against the Jewish people in Denmark he had nothing else to do so he commited suicide
he thought they were disrespectful and they shouldnt deserve to live.... he only liked true germans and aryans ( people with blonde hair + blue eyes) anyone who was in contact with or was thought to be a jew would be killed in horrific ways :)
He viewed them as an inferior race and blamed the Jews for all of Germany's problems including the loss of WW1 to the severe economic depression Germany was experiencing at the time. The Nazi's also used antisemitism to enrich themselves, all property and money Jewish families had was confiscated and used by the Nazi's. Hitler dreamed of a "pure" German race. Hitler also murdered and deported other races along with the Jews who he saw as not being "fit". He also murdered the mentally retarded, those with mental illness, criminals, political opponents, Hitler was an equal opportunity mass murderer.
He didn't. While Jews were Hitler's primary target, other groups were also targeted by Hitler, including: Slavs, Romani (Gypsies), Jehovah's Witnesses, the Handicapped, Communists, Political Dissenters, and any opposition to Hitler and the Nazi policies. As for why Jews were his primary target see the Related Questions below.
It should also be pointed out that if it had just been Hitler, the Holocaust would never have happened. It strikes me as a good time to quote Tom Lehrer's song "National Brotherhood Week":
Oh the Catholics hate the Protestants,
and the Protestants hate the Catholics,
and the Hindus hate the Muslims,
and everybody hates the Jews.
(Before anyone has a hissy, I'd like to point out that Lehrer himself is ethnically Jewish.)
There's a certain amount of historical truth in that: you'd be amazed at some of the things Jews were accused of doing during medieval times in Europe, and even into the 20th century the Germans in particular had bought into the notion that the German Army and the German People had been sold down the river at the end of World War I by somebody, and "the Jews" were a convenient scapegoat.
that is not true he killed black people, people with disability's gay peope and people who didn't like Hitler as well as the Jews.
He didn't. There were a number of other groups
that also made it onto his list.
Hitler also killed Communists, homosexuals, mentally retarded and other severely handicapped persons, among others.
Hitler did not only kill Jews but his own people so as to show powerful he is. He used different forms of propaganda so as to cause deaths of innocent people with the majority being Jews.
Hitler wasn't Jewish. If Hitler was Jewish, it wouldn't make any sense for him to kill all the Jews.

There was problems in Germany so he blamed the Jews and that is what made Hitler kill.
