How did the long history of anti-semitism in Europe help Hitler carry out his plan for the Jews?

You appear to be using anti-semitism as meaning anti-jewish - it's not and neither is there a long history of anti-jewishness in Europe (which incudes 20 States and has 3.5 times the population of the USA and has been tolerant of the Jewish religion for centuries)If you must trace anti-semitism from Europe and you accept that anti-semitism is anti-Middle-Eastern (Arab) it stretches back to the crusades of the 10th century (for christianity against the middle eastern arab nations).So to put you straight Hitler (Austrian) targetted the jews by blaming them for all the economic and social troubles faced by Germany from the beginning of the 20th century (even for the period of the Great War 1914-18) not through a non-existant sense of European anti-semitism ._______The meaning of a word is not its etymology. The word antisemitism was coined in the 1870s specifically as an 'upmarket' term for hatred of the Jews as a race and because the antisemites were fed up with being called Jew baiters.The word is never used of Arabs and other speakers of Semitic languages.Oh, and by the way, Jews were demonized in Europe from the time of the First Crusade. Please find out the fact before 'putting people straight'.This addition is at best thought-provoking and at worst, irritating and rude. I don't accept your statement about etymology - the study of the sources and development of words is essentialto understand a question fully. You question my re-definition of the term anti-semitism, give no source for the 'coining' of the 'new' word antisemitism, suggest it was an 'upmarket' reference why? because it contained more than four syllables/ who coined it specifically in reation to Jews? How are you able to support this tosh? Oh, and by the way, if you want to learn more about Semites and The Middle East, Read Seven Pillars of Wisdom by T. E. Lawrence - I did, and that's why I have the facts you deny me.

Was the final solution directly linked to eugenics national destiny and darwinian evolution?

No. Adolf Hitler's Endlösung was the product of an insane brain, inspired by a long religious tradition of anti-semitism that goes back centuries.


Why did Hitler choose to persecute the Jews more than every other religion?

Mainly because Europe had a long history of active and latent anti-Semitism so it wasn't too hard for him to brainwash many of his followers.
