Atrocious Views Of Inspiration By Adolf Hitler

Loved and adored by a few, fervent fanatics, Hitler was deemed a savior and regarded as a genius due to his theory of a perfect race and his promise of salvation for the desperate German people. Hitler held his beliefs as optimum principles and as sacred as the word of God; he concluded they should be adopted by all of his people. The Fuhrer regarded himself as a genius in a time when people were dying for hope and a scapegoat - this would later prove to be a recipe for disaster. As a result of his theories, he put into action the most grotesque mass genocide of all time. Hitler intimidated any who opposed him, silenced any who didn’t see eye to eye with him, and eradicated all who were a threat to him. How can he be a genius? This blatant disrespect for human life is a dark stain that cannot and should not be washed away. It should be remembered and used as an example to prevent further ignorance from resulting in

Once, Adolf Hitler said, “It’s not the truth that matters, but victory.” Obviously, this quote shows that Hitler’s mindset was directed towards winning, and not his moral values. He made false accusations about the innocent Jews, killing over six-million of them. These false accusations were simple, repeated, and, eventually, people believed it. The rise of Hitler and the Nazi Party affected how people viewed the Jews at the time. To begin, events in Adolf Hitler’s life lead to his viewpoints and affiliations. Secondly, the creation of the Nazi Party was critical to the formation of Germany’s point of view. Lastly, Jewish people had been used as scapegoats for the loss of World War I and Germany’s economic crisis.

Hitler had shown unwillingness to tolerate the Jews and once he was appointed Chancellor, he started to take elimination measures like deportation, forced emigration, and isolation to enforce his belief. He took advantage of Germany’s weakness in World War One, then used it as an opportunity to blame the Jews for Germany’s defeat. Hitler’s political party was the largest political party in Germany thus allowing them to draw very large crowds to gatherings. He had very good oratory speeches with hand gestures that easily manipulated people to adhere to his views. Hitler constantly targeted the Jews because he knew people believed in these speeches. People in Germany were already anti-semitic but Hitler made it worse by constantly consuming them in his speeches. From the way he spoke about the Jews, we could clearly see the possibility of genocide. Hitler wanted Germany to be free of any humans that anyone other than his ideal master race so he personally selected bodyguards to be part of a group called the SS. Hitler was responsible for ordering the SS to carry out the extermination of anyone who did not fit this ideal. The SS handled oppositions using force and as a result of which people were forced to give into the idea of violence. Sometimes people purposely went along with this Holocaust ideal due to the fear of getting killed. These terrors allowed the holocaust occur

Horror struck on January 30, 1933, when Germany assigned Adolf Hitler as their chancellor. Once Hitler had finally reached power he set out to complete one goal, create a Greater Germany free from the Jews (“The reasons for the Holocaust,” 2009). This tragedy is known today as, “The Holocaust,” that explains the terrors of our histories past. The face of the Holocaust, master of death, and leader of Germany; Adolf Hitler the most deceitful, powerful, well spoken, and intelligent person that acted as the key to this mass murder. According to a research study at the University of South Florida, nearly eleven million people were targeted and killed. This disaster is a genocide that was meant to ethnically cleanse Germany of the Jews. Although Jewish people were the main target they were not the only ones targeted; gypsies, African Americans, homosexuals, socialists, political enemies, communists, and the mentally disabled were killed (Simpson, 2012, p. 113). The word to describe this hatred for Jewish people is known as antisemitism. It was brought about when German philosophers denounced that “Jewish spirit is alien to Germandom” (“Antisemitism”) which states that a Jew is non-German. Many people notice the horrible things the Germans did, but most don’t truly understand why the Holocaust occurred. To truly understand the Holocaust, you must first know the Nazis motivations. Their motivations fell into two categories including cultural explanations that focused on ideology and

One of history’s most horrible events is the Jewish holocaust. This was a horrible event in WWII history. This was a mass genocide of millions of Jewish people by the Nazis led by Hitler. In Hitler’s book Mien Kamph, he wrote about getting rid of the jews in germany’s political, intellectual life and culture. He was very open to hating them. Although Hitler did not originally plan on carrying out the systematic mass murder of millions of Jews, this ultimately did happen.

Adolf Hitler is very much known for his barbaric deed and responsibility of the Holocaust-- possibly the most disturbing and most horrifying event to be recorded in history. The holocaust systematically killed over six million Jewish people, including over 1.5 million children that were victimized through a number of arguments that many believed was the cause for the destruction. It is difficult to conclude an overriding reason why the holocaust happened, although it is argued, however, that the imminent effect of the psychological state of mind of Hitler, along with the German citizens at the time, had a massive effect on what happened and what could have been prevented. Hitler’s anger and the country’s general

On September 1, 1939, Adolf Hitler and his army of Nazis attacked Poland, marking the first day of six years of war, fear, and suffering. Hitler had long since came to power in Germany. After World War I, Germany was stripped of many things; money, cultural worth, dignity and power. The Germans needed a place to look to for help; they needed a promising future, and Adolf Hitler promised them just that. Blaming the Jewish religion, Hitler began to rise from the masses of Germans. He convinced Germany that the Jews were “untermenschen”, of what roughly translates to in English as “subhuman” or less of a human. So eager for hope of a better way of life, the rest of Germany trusted and gave him the power he needed to carry out multiple acts of destruction.

Hitler showed absurd cruelty to the Jews. Maier says, “Hitler initiated actions against the Jews. They were turned into a race of "untouchables" within their own state, unable to pursue certain careers and a public life. The Nuremberg Laws of 1935 defined as Jewish anyone with one Jewish grandparent. That a terrible fate would be their lot was clear in Hitler's remarks that war in Europe would lead to the "extinction of the Jewish race in Europe” (Adolf Hitler, Wendy Maier). Hitler showcased when he first came to power and tried to wipe out the jews. More about Hitler’s savagery. To include to Hitler’s savagery is his aggressive personality. He used aggressive power he had from the Nazis and came after his opponents. The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia says,“political opponents such as von Schleicher and Gregor Strasser were murdered or incarcerated, and some Nazis, among them Ernst Roehm, were themselves purged. Jews, Socialists, Communists, and others were hounded, arrested, or assassinated”(Adolf Hitler, The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia). Hitler used the aggressiveness of the Nazis to eliminate all threats and enemies. To be included to Hitler’s savagery and aggressiveness is his love for power. Hitler loved having power so much that he tried anything to achieve more and more of power. The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia said,“he ran in the presidential elections of

At that time, the mayor of the city was anti-Semitic and ensured that his hatred of Jewish people would be widespread. However, this may not the primary reason behind Hitler’s hatred of the Jews. Many individuals think that this hatred stemmed from a childhood friend that was Jewish. However, it cannot be relegated to a single event in his early life” (“Hitler’s Children”). Hitler was the cruelest man on the Earth, because he took the lives of almost 6 million people just to comfort himself from the pain in the past.

During the years of 1933-1945, the German Nazi regime killed around 6 million European Jews as well as others who were seen as mentally retarded or homosexual (McMorran). To the Nazis’ leader, Adolf Hitler, people of Jewish decent were seen as inferior. Hitler had a stereotype that Jewish people were a threat to the German racial purity and community. The Jewish people living in Europe during Hitler’s rule were discriminated against and ultimately were segregated from all other races. During the segregation of Jewish people, Adolf Hitler wanted the Jews to be physically separate from all other ethnic groups and racial groups by forcefully moving the Jews into concentration camps, keeping the Germans the dominant group in Hitler’s eyes. The social concepts and theories of prejudice, segregation and discrimination forced upon the Jewish people were seen as a result of Adolf Hitler’s stereotype about the Jewish ethnicity.

"In his mind Hitler associated his declaration of war on September 1, 1939 with his promise to destroy the Jews."5 Hitler believed that someday the world would thank him for destroying the Jewish race. In one of the few speeches in which Hitler does not mention the Jews he states "Whoever deviates from the rules for the humane conduct of war can expect nothing else from us, but that we will take the same steps."6 In saying this he clearly warned the world that anyone who interferes with his plans will go down with the Jews. This forewarning brought fear to those who had intentions to step in and help out. People had reason to fear their own well being and as a result, six million Jews were executed under Hitler’s control.

Hitler’s original intent, as some at first believe, was not to solely destroy the Jewish people. His two major goals were to expand Germany’s power and to assert the dominance of the Aryan race (Holocaust Encyclopedia, 2014). As a result the destruction of the Jewish people could almost be considered collateral damage. Hitler was not just anti-Semitic, he was also strongly nationalistic. With his main goal being expansion, other, smaller motives became relevant as he attempted to satiate his power-hungry objective. For example, the expansion of Germany eastward provided the opportunity for Hitler to destroy Communism. Its expansion also called for the strengthening of Germany’s economic power.

The most deadly example of genocide, a type of ethnic conflict, in human history was the Holocaust, which took place in Nazi Germany and surrounding nations from 1941 to 1945 (O’Shaughnessy 2009) . The Holocaust was ordered by Hitler to exterminate the Jewish people living in and around Germany, leading to the death of at least 6 million Jews as well as many other undesirables and potential political rivals (Kallis 2005). Hitler wished to target the Jews because he saw them as an easy scapegoat for why the German economy was failing and because he believed in a conspiracy theory concerning the rise of communism led by the Jews that threatened to overpower Europe and destroy Germany (Herf 2006). In order for Hitler 's plans to succeed, he had to manipulate the German people to a point where they would at least turn a blind eye to the disappearances of Jews even if they did not outright support the genocide. Hitler achieved this goal by crafting a narrative in which the Jews were the behind the scenes causing the war and the economic sufferings of Germany, which he then spread through his massive propaganda machine of Nazi Party owned newspapers and printing presses (O’Shaughnessy 2009).

Hitler falsely accused the entire Jewish race of being responsible for World War II. His use of propaganda in school text books and media was extremely effective. People began to discriminate against Jews so heavily that they were forced to have large J’s stamped on their passports restricting them from leaving Germany and entering Austria a “Jew- friendly” territory. The hatred infused into Hitler’s followers boiled so hot, they formed into angry mobs one night and began to vandalize synagogues, Jewish owned businesses, the homes of many Jewish citizens, this was known as Kristallnacht. In fact, that night, tens of thousands of Jewish citizens were deported to concentration

For the past seventy years, Adolf Hitler has been known as one of the most evil men in history. The Fueherer, as he was known, exhumed hatred and violence in his pursuit of power. A vile man, driven by violence and a lust for power, eventually drove himself mad with his own idealistic vision of what a perfect world would be, and how he would achieve
