During The Holocaust: Why Did Hitler Hate Jews

Most people know that Hitler killed over six millions of Jews during the Holocaust. However, why did Hitler hate Jews? Why did he tried to wipe out this entire race of people? There are several possible reasons that may lead us to the answer. (Margaret whyguides)

When he was 19, his mother had passed away because a Jewish doctor didn’t cure her. And he didn’t enter the Vienna Academy of Fine Art, his dream school, because of Jewish professors.

After the World War One, Hitler and many Germans were suffered in poor because of the economy problem, while the Jewish people were still able to make good money and have good jobs even in the hard times. When he was suffering on the street after the First World War, the hardest time in his life, he saw many rich Jewish people showing other people how much did they have.

He also blamed the Jews on made Germany lost in the World War One (Margaret,
