German/Austrian Jews were probably the single-best assimilated crop of Jews in the entirety of Europe leading up the second world war, with thousands having converted to christianity, subscribed to reform (meme) judaism, married non-jewish spouses, traded in yiddish entirely for German, served in huge numbers for the Kaiser during the first world war..
..so why the FUCK would Hitler decide that, of all the jews in Europe to shit on, to focus on them at any point?
Levi King
it's never enough for the fucking dumb goyim
don't try to get chummy with them they will always hate us
Levi Anderson
>..so why the FUCK would Hitler decide it was based on emotion he wanted to blame "an other", a minority - there weren't real reasons
oh and science about the jews being inferior
Joshua Adams
Jews were a minority in Europe People like to bully minorities
Jews owned a large share of Europe's wealth People like to bully those in power
Hitler was a rude bully and was just /unkind/ in general, user. You can't really explain why he was.
Jason Ward
And most European Jews saw Imperial Germany and Austro-Hungary as beacons of hope compared to Russia or even France (remember Dreyfus affair). Russian Jews probably saw Germans as liberators. Ironically, if there's someone who should have believed in anti-Jewish conspiracy theories that would have been the allies since most antisemitism was on their side.
Some things in history are just that retarded.

*Entente, damn WWII
Christian Hughes
He read a lot of questionable books.
Andrew Rivera
Germans are evil bastards
Brandon Price
they still were far from a majority meaning they were easy to scapegoat along with the rest
Jaxson Martin
Because they betrayed Germany many times despite this, as Jews will tell you today they were "Jews first and Germans second". And more importantly like rats and plague, communism followed them.
Nathan Sanchez
Genocide happens generally when the masses lash out against a minority wealthier than them, it can be Jews, it can be overseas Chinese in south east asia, it can be tutsis, or it can be nobles.
Jews were much wealthier and educated than the average German. Even though they were a very small % of the population they were a very high % of doctors for example, they were very overrepresented among successful people.
There was tangible and realistic fear of a communist revolution, and Jews were, or seemed to be also overrepresented among communists, both in Russia were it succeeded and in Germany.
It isnt so different from the present, in my country I am pretty sure Jews are very overrepresented among wealthy bankers and among Marxist sociologists.
Also, Hitler was relevant. Without Hitler they wouldnt have killed so many million Jews.

learn2history
shitler was from austria, vienna was a jewish city filled with elitist, affluent jews that looked down on the goy
shitler was an impoverished foreigner in his own land who experienced direct snobbery from the elite jews
shitler saw himself and his compatriots oppressed under foreign rule
tl;dr shitler was rejected by a foreign elite society in his homeland
Christian Martin
>why the FUCK would Hitler decide that, of all the jews in Europe to shit on, to focus on them at any point? You falsely presume that they were assimilated, and that Hitler started the fighting.
Asher Gray
well it's a good thing they have their own real-life country now to dedicate that loyalty to! no more questions of faith for the jews!
Ryan Sanchez
Because: they alledgedly caused the great depression. Both in Germany and the USA they were big in banking. A lot of the German economy was based on loans from America, so when the wall street crashed in 1929 Germany was fucked too, because of >the greedy Jews™ They also alledgedly caused WWI and were pro-communist but i forgot what reason he stated for this.
Julian Johnson
Oh look, its this shitty pasta again.
Benjamin Howard
What you have to understand is that the meme about Hitler hating jews for being backroom backstabbers, bankers etc. is false.
There always was degree of anti-semitism in every society where jews were minority, but what has driven Hitler to hate was something different.
When he lived his street bum days in Vienna, he had a first time experience with jews, gypsies and slavs.
But those weren't the jewish bankers or Russian aristocrats. Those were poor orthodox jews, poor slavs and gypsies. Hitler hated those. One Rothschild happened to end up in concentration camp and due to his family he got lighter treatment. Vichy France and it's territory after it ceased to be a thing was in general a refugee centre for rich jews - mind you, they collaborated on exterminating the poorer ones more than basically any other, but the rich one still had their businesses running and well there. Son of one of the richest people in Hungary in 40's collaborated with Germans and guess what, he's jewish. We can go on and on about it and it all looks the same. For Hitler, the "evil" jews were the city poor, not the elites. >play with fire(send Lenin with funds to start revolution in Russia) >get burned >blame fire

Because Jews are vile malicious cunts. They didn't get expelled from 109 nations throughout history for simply minding their own business. Also this
John Stewart
No, they got expelled because everyone owed them money and throwing them out was cheaper than paying it back.
James Moore
Easy mode learning.
Just watch "the greatest story never told" on youtube.
Thomas Bennett
add to this "under the sign of the scorpion", both the book and the youtube vid.
John Jackson
Nah, more like, "we print your money goy, now pay us back at interest so you're forced to borrow and owe us forever, you born slave".
Juan Lewis
Because Hitler was a charming man, not a smart one.
Also, Germans were becoming radicalized by French and UK oppression of Germany after the unfair terms of WWI. Much like how ISIS came out of the pissed off generation of people who grew up during the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Radicalized Germans were caught up in what was a very European idea that has existed since the dominance of the Catholic Church: Jews are bad.
Germany wasn't the only country that hated Jews. France hated them more. Eastern Europe still loathes Jews. This stems from the Catholic Church having their power threatened by Jews. If all it took for the Church to lose power was for people to not be their religion, any other religion was a threat.
Germany actually did something about it, because they were caught up in the nationalistic fervor that was caused by years of starvation and exploitation at the hands of the allies.
Ethan Sullivan

Yes? Russia was the aggressor in a conflict it had no reason to get involved in other than the goal that Russia had of taking over central Europe.
After Russia conceded, and entered a civil war, with tons of infighting.
On top of that, all of that was undone when Germany surrendered in 1918, so it didn't matter. All that winning Germany did on the East was undone by the aggressor states.
and before you say "hurr Germany invaded france first!", France was setting Germany up to be destroyed by Russia. France and the UK and Russia had no issue taking colonies all over the world, but when AH wanted to take Serbia, suddenly it's a big deal? Suddenly Russia and France have to march on Germany and AH for such an evil act? Why? Because France and Germany have historically hated each other, and France knew Russia would destroy Germany eventually?
Russia caused WWI. They didn't deserve good terms. Germany lost it, and was exploited for a couple decades. No wonder they went with hitler.

before that it was just slavery and gold notes in exchange for actual gold
