It's called the stab-in-the-back legend in English (in German die Dolchstosslegende). It's a conspiracy theory that claimed that Germany hadn't been defeated in World War 1 but had been stabbed in the back by subversives on the homefront - socialists, Communists, liberals and Jews, so it was said. This conspiracy theory first arose in a slightly different form in early 1918 and wasn't invented by Hitler.

Was Hitler himself a Jew?
No, that is just a myth, Hitler was not Jewish.AnswerNot necessarily true. Even Hitler didn't know for sure; he suspected that he had Jewish blood. His father's birth was recorded as illegitimate; his father's mother had left her job as a housekeeper in a Jewish household because she was pregnant with Hitler's father. As in many things, Hitler did not feel the need to comply with the strict rules for Nazi membership for showing proof of non-Jewish ancestry. He simply avoided any scrutiny of his ancestry.
Why did German at first support Hitler?
Hitler did not really become bad until the Holocaust. If Hitler had stopped in France, or even before his invasion of Poland in 1939 he would of been the greatest leader of Germany out shining Otto von Bismark. He industrialised the country and was able to pull it out of a depression. He also was able to use the "stabbed in the back" myth from world war one to gain German support. In World War One Germany was never forced back into its own country, there was never any fights on German land. Therefore the German civilians could be led to believe that they had been "stabbed in the back" by the leaders of the country at the time.

Was Hitler really a vegiterian?
Only in the sense that he occasionally claimed to be; many witnesses attested to him eating liver, Bavarian sausages and stuffed squab (young pigeon). The latter was said to be his favorite dish by a restaurant that he attended regularly in the 1930s. According to Robert Payne (Hitler's biographer), the vegetarian claim was made up by Goebbels to give the impression of an ascete in the manner of Gandhi; Goebbels claimed that Hitler did not smoke, drink, eat meat or have anything to do with women. In fact, it is known he did all of these -- except smoke. So, apart from his many other faults, Hitler was also dishonest about his diet. Hitler was actually not a vegetarian at all. That is a myth. Rynn Berry an educator and historian wrote a pamphlet about this and later expanded it into a book. I read in a book that he indeed was a vegetarian, for a short time, but that was for a public relations campaign to display himself as "pure". Then he stopped, since it's impossible for a cold-blooded killer to make decisions to save lives if you know what I mean. Hitler's doctor recommended that he cut down on the amount of meat he ate, which he did to a small extent, Goebbels started the story that Hitler didn't smoke, drink, eat meat or have anything to do with women (it's well attested that Hitler did all of these apart from smoke). Hitler was not a vegetarian. He has been recorded eating meat throughout his life and only occasionally refused meat at a meal because his doctor advised.
