Answer:
The exact reason is hard to point as there are many varying theories related to this topic. Some of these are:
- During the 1930's it was common to dislike jews, almost anywhere in the world. Hitler too shared this dislike but his dislike extended to such an extent that he ordered their mass execution.
- Hitler was influenced by the leftist notion that that good, ordinary germans were being systematically excluded from good positions in society by malign jewish machinations. In prewar, germany, top positions were very much overrepresented by the jews.
- He was under the impression that the jews were biologically inferior and a potential challenge to the superiority of the 'Aryans'. According to him aryans were the purest and the master race. He described the struggle for world domination as an ongoing racial, cultural, and political battle between Aryans and Jews. These inferior people were seen as a threat to the purity and strength of the German nation.
- Young hitler, was obsessed by german nationalism and saw it as a way to rebel against his abusive father, who proudly served the austrian government.
- It is also believed that hitler was greatly influence by darwin's theory which claims that stronger races survive, weaker races are either protected or destroyed by stronger ones.
- Another belief is that his mother was poisoned to death by a jewish doctor. His mother, klara, was diagnosed with breast cancer. Klara's jew doctor, eduard bloch, had administered iodoform, which was the standard treatment for breast cancer at the time. But she died from the treatment in 1907, when she was just 47 years old. Hitler never forgave the jewish doctor and developed hatred for all jews.
- Another popular cause, considered, is that when hitler was in Vienna he had an illegal affair with a sex woker. After some time hitler found that he was infected by syphilis. The sex worker turned out to be a jew. This particular incident had affected hitler to such an extend that he mentioned, that the only way of getting germany rid of syphilis and restoring its pride is to cleanse it of jews. Such thoughts could have been the result of inflamation of some parts of the brain, caused by syphilis, which casues obbsesive thoughts and holucinations.
