Why Hitler saw Jews as a threat to humanity

For Hitler, antisemitism wasn’t a prejudice — it was a worldview. After WW1, he fused old European antisemitism with racial myth and social Darwinism, claiming that Jewish ethics like equality, compassion, and human dignity threatened the “natural order.” Every setback — in Vienna, in the army, in a collapsing Germany — fed his obsession. Mein Kampf turned that obsession into a blueprint for genocide. He sought to erase a people. Their survival remains the final, unambiguous defeat of his vision.
