Nothing, absolutely nothing gave them any right to kill the Jews. The Nazi regime did as it pleased and didn't care about right and wrong: the Nazi leadership had no morality and no conscience. The Nazis operated on the principle "we do what we can get away with" - just as any psychopath does. (In fact, Nazi ideology expressly rejected conscience as weak, 'servile', Jewish and Christian ...)
That is why it was called "a War crime".
______________________________
The 'right of might' has always existed and will always exist. Every empire (whether they call themselves an empire or not), Kingdom or State has used it, even in today's world, just look at the newspapers. It is the same principle as 'Victor's justice', if you are stronger, then you can do whatever you want.
One could ask what gave Stalin the right to kill even more (of his own people).
Nazi party structure was built on a "if you want something, then take it'" policy, as the Nazis believed that this would produce the strongest leaders, rather than those who could talk the best (like Hitler).
Do not be fooled into believing that Nazis were psychopaths or otherwise insane, they were calculating and above all, they actually believed that they were doing good (though they knew that this was not the recoginsed opinion).
There were hundreds of people who helped Hitler in killing the Jews, from party officials to the people working in the concentration and extermination camps, so it would be too many to name them all, and practically impossible.
The Nazis believed that all Jews were an inferior race and that they should'nt be allowed to live with their own so called "Aryan" race. Adolph Hitler was not fully responsible for the Holocaust his chief in charge of the killing was "Heinrich Himmler" Head of the SS
That is correct. The Nazis wanted to establish a super race, and that also involved the extermination of all Jews.
The Nazis thought that the Jews were the cause of all sorts of problems in Germany and thought that they were scum, when the Jew's weren't the cause of the problem, the Jews were not evil, it was all the other way around, it's just that Hitler was in charge at the time and made everybody think this.
nazis were killing jews, needed to hide, had to remain quiet at all times, no open windows, dependant on others
They were killing all the Jews under Adolf Hitler's command.
All Jews regardless of any status, were killed by the Nazis, with no exceptions. Some were spared temporarily if they were able to be of some use to the Nazis, but in the end the Nazis wanted them all dead. ___ The fact that the Holocaust involved killing some highly qualified people didn't bother the Nazis in the least.

From 1941 on exterminating the Jews were Nazi policy. In other words, the Nazis intended to kill all the Jews they could find. The Jews were sent to camps in order to be killed.

All over Europe.

No, the Nazis could care less whether or not they were clean all they wanted to do was get rid of them!
No, it was adults and children. The Nazis wanted to exterminate all Jews.
Hitler planned on killing all of the Jews.
There was no must about it at all. The Nazis choseto treat the Jews as a problem.
