Because they were given no choice

In 1939 the German government advised the 900,000 Jews to leave Germany. Hitlers rise to power is because one of his election platforms was to rid the country of the Jewish bailiffs sent to Germany with writ of seizures from the world court to repay the costs of WW1, which the court determined was the responsibility of the German people. The bailiffs were in control of the German financial system, and the German people were virtual slaves. The bailiffs lived as lords. The German people voted to empower Hitler to remove the Jews from Germany because they felt they were being enslaved by the Jewish bailiffs, and were being treated as inferior servants, slaves, and lowpaid hirelings, without any hope for the future

The purpose was to murder 6 million Jews of Europe and to remove the disabled, gay, and elderly as well as any dissenting people. In 1933 approximately 9.5 million Jews lived in Europe comprising 1.7% of the total European population. This number represents more than 60% of the World's Jewish population at that time of an estimated 15.3 million. The majority of Jews in prewar Europe lived in Eastern Europe. The largest was Poland with about 3,000,000 Jews. In Central Europe the largest Jewish population was in Germany with about 525,000 people and Western Europe the largest population was in Great Britain with 300,000. Before the Nazi seizure in 1933 Europe had a diverse set of Jewish cultures. In less than a decade two out of every three Jews would be dead.
