after hitler came to power in1933 what did he blame germanys defeat in world war one on
Hitler had repeatedly blamed the Jews for most of Germany's problems, including its defeat from World War I and subsequent economic fall down.
Germany was in miserable condition by the early 1930’s. United States, Britain, and France imposed harsh conditions in the 1919 Treaty of Versailles which had left Germany underprivileged, with inflation eating away at its economy. The worldwide Depression aggravated the situation as banks failed, factories closed, and millions of people became jobless.
The Jews, according to Hitler, were involved in a conspiracy to spread conflict and keep the Germans race from getting its position as rulers of the world. Hitler also set forth racial theories emphasizing that fair-skinned, blue-eyed and blonde Germans were the supreme form of humans and the Jews were the racial opposite.
Years of repressed hatred toward the Jews was finally set loose on the night that marks the actual beginning of the Holocaust - on November 9/10, Ernst vom Rath, a German embassy official in Paris was killed by 17-year-old Herschel Grynszpan, in revenge for the cruel treatment his Jewish parents had received from Nazis.
Adolf Hitler had always claimed to have no interest in money but the truth could hardly have been more different. It is now claimed that he had amassed a personal fortune in property, art and cash worth in excess of $6 billion. Read more at the Daily Beast.
