Adolf Hitler 's Anti Semitism

Hitler made the “Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service” it was the first law to exclude Jews from state service. “The Anti-Semitic laws were issued throughout all levels of government, making good on the Nazis’ pledge to persecute Jews if the party came to power”. The law also limited the amount of Jewish kids in a school and limited Jews working in medical professions. People were also called Jews if they had grandparents that were Jewish.

Immediately after the Reichstag elections on 5 March 1933, which marked the real beginning to Hitler’s and the Nazis’ takeover of Germany, “Nazi organisations began to unleash their anger against the Jews. Jews were molested, some even killed, and Jewish businesses were harassed or destroyed,” (Holocaust A Call To Conscience). The first anti-Semitic initiative was the boycott of Jewish stores in April 1933. This was followed by a wave of anti-Semitic laws and decrees. More than 2,000 racist laws and decrees were issued between 1933 and 1945.

insane to torture the human race that way. Others praise him for attempting to exterminate

"It all happened so fast. The ghetto. The sealed cattle car. The fiery altar upon which the history of our people an the future of mankind were meant to be sacrificed."-Elie Weisel. Imagine you wake up one morning and everyone around you was being beaten, killed, put in jail, all because they are Jewish, Gypsies, Handicapped, Slavic people, Homosexuals, Jehovah's Witnesses, and many others. So many people suffered during the holocaust, and it all started when the Anti-Semitism Nazi leader Adolf Hitler decided that they were an "Inferior race" and a threat to German racial purity and community. It effects today by giving us remembrance of the sinister things that happened during Hitler's reign of power.

Throughout history, the Jewish people have been continuously at the center of numerous persecution and hatred. In countries all over Europe the Jewish people countless acts of hate have occurred for centuries. During the time of the Holocaust, over twelve million people were exterminated and it is believed anywhere from five and a half million to six and a half million of these people were Jewish. The Jewish people were repeadelty targeted for a number of various reasons.

When Adolf Hitler rose to power in 1933, he had a belief that race was the sole matter that defined the culture of a civilization. He influenced the country of Germany to change the ideological values that they previously abided by. This change marked the beginning of a new era, which led to the most pure ideological genocide that can be remembered to this day since there was no pragmatic motivation throughout the time period the Holocaust took place. It is a dark mark in the history of western civilization, and many countries could have helped aid the Jews in their effort to resist, but none more than the United States of America. Though not the primary reason for the longevity of the Holocaust, the U.S. does bear some culpability for the persecution and eventual mass killings of the six million Jews in Europe because of a growth of anti-Semitism that interfered with the ability to offer aid at a time when they were capable to, thus becoming labeled as an international bystander.

The Holocaust started when a small group of people in Germany, who were known as the Nazis, believed that some people shouldn’t live. The Nazis were anti-Semitic which means that they did not like the Jews. The Nazi party was a small group but it grew larger as more and more people followed and believed the idea that the Nazis had about certain people. The Nazis became powerful because of their famous leader, Adolf Hitler. Adolf Hitler was the leader of the Nazis and he believed that “...Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals and the disabled - were inferior and didn’t deserve to live.”(Zullo and Bovsun 1) The Nazis and their leader, Adolf Hitler blamed the Jews for Germany’s economic problems. Hitler became very popular because he was the leader of the Nazis, and soon he became the dictator of Germany. Hitler’s main goal was to “Take control of all Europe.”(Zullo and Bovsun 1)The Jews had to move to certain camps and most of the time, they would get separated from their families and get killed by the Nazis. Six million Jews died because of the Nazis and “This horrific mass murder is called the Holocaust.”(Zullo and Bovsun 3) After the war, the survivors became concerned about telling their stories because not everyone believed it but then they remember people dying in camps and they would say ”You must live, survive. You must write it down, record it, tell it.

“Hitler used the Jews as a scapegoat, blaming them for Germany's economic and social problems,” (“Background: Life Before”). Germany during Hitler’s rise was desperate for change and hope. When Hitler brought the German people up from economic troubles that came from World War 1 they were more than willing to agree and do nearly anything Hitler said. Hitler took his antisemitism to the extreme with the help of his people were able to conduct one of the worst mass killings known to man. Anti Semitism may have existed beforehand but it was never on the scale of what the Holocaust

There is debate among Historians as to when anti-Semitism became Hitler’s deepest and strongest conviction. As early as 1919 he wrote “Rational anti-Semitism must lead to systematic legal opposition. Its final objective must be the removal of the Jews altogether” (Knapp). In Mein Kampf, he described the Jews as “destroyer of culture…, a parasite within the nation…

Hitler’s voice was also another factor that that made him a great orator. In this case, the author describes Hitler’s voice to be very powerful and appealing to the people. He also used animation or body language in his speeches to demonstrate what he was trying to say to the audience physical. This point is clearly seen in the article through the pictures taken of him and video showing how he addresses his

In the tumultuous period leading up to World War II, a series of laws were devised in Nazi Germany that subjected the Jewish people to prohibitory and discriminatory forms of treatment. Although the Jewish people only accounted for 503,000 of the 55 million occupants of the country, Adolf Hitler’s dictatorship preached the incorporation of anti-Semitism into law and practice in order to quell the people he considered to be the enemy of the country.

The experience of the war, economic crisis and the discontent caused by the conditions of the Treaty of Versailles created a favourable condition for a rise of utopian revolutionary movements such as Fascism in Italy and National Socialism in Germany. By placing the regeneration of the nation as one of their main objectives, they provided a dream of recreating a sense of community among the members of their nations whilst providing a sense of security through national myths and symbols, which left little or no room for those who were different. According to Mosse, ‘war had transformed politics into a drama built upon shared emotions’, and racism, thus, all too easily provided ‘unity to this drama’. Yet, the leaders of those movements, Hitler,

A time in history that really interests most of the world is the holocaust. There is discrimination all over the world , but one of the most discriminating times was during the holocaust. When thinking about the holocaust most people come to the question, how could rational thinking people let so many innocent people die? The answer to that question is just one guy, Adolf Hitler. He was a wizard with words, the kind of person that could persuade people to do anything. When he talked to the public he kept his speeches simple. He only talked about one or two points, spoke direct and with a sense of power, used stereotypes, and tried to stir their emotions. One of the biggest things is the slogans he would create to push

Hitler was a very passionate speaker that was incredibly adept to connecting to his audience in order to influence or persuade. The people he was speaking to would feel his passion. His charisma for speaking combined with the weak structure of Germany at the time made him influential beyond any other. He had the combined skills of an actor and a politician, “he could talk well and he had the actor’s gift of mimicry to amuse his companions. (Green, 2001, pg. 12), and everything he said and did had a calculated

After Hitler comes into power, the laws of Jewish persecution become more often, stricter, and more deadly. The next law that passed was that of the Nuremberg Laws these laws stated that none of the Jews in Germany were allowed to marry Aryans or fly the German flag (The Holocaust Background info center). 1935 ended with another law against the Jews being passed, as did the start of 1936.
