Anti-Seitism and Kristallnacht
ADOLF HITLER
INTRODUCTION
This happened because of all the writings and speeches of Adolf Hitler.
In the 25 point programme drawn by Hitler and Anton Drexler in 1920 for the National Socialist German Workers Party it stated that "citizenship is to be determined by race" which is no Jew allowed to be German.
Mein Kampf
As Hitler said that Jews were responsible for everything he did not like(modern art, pornography (sexual photos) and prostitution). He also said that they were responsible for losing the first world war and taking over Germany.Hitler claimed that 75 percent of all communists were Jews, he argued that the combination of Jews and Marxists had already been successful in Russia and now threatened the rest of Europe.
