What was the reason behind Hitlers hatred towards the Jews?
Antisemitism was already common in Germany. Much of Hitler’s personal hatred stemmed from his move to Vienna and rejection from art school there after which he ended up living in a homeless house. He was convinced that it was a Jewish professor that had rejected his art work and he cleared the snow-bound paths of beautiful town houses in Vienna where rich people lived and he became convinced that only Jews lived in these homes. Hitler called his five years in Vienna “five years of hardship and misery”. In his book called “Mein Kampf”, Hitler made it clear that his time in Vienna was entirely the fault of the Jews.
