Analysis Of Mein Kampf

Mein Kampf was Adolf Hitler’s life story and his ideals about the world. The first nine chapters of the book explain how he got into his current predicament. Then he goes into great detail on why he dislikes the Jews and why all Germans should dislike the Jews as well. Hitler writes about the Jewish press and how they influence the society:
But it is just for our intellectual demi-monde that the Jew writes his so-called intellectual press. For them the Frankfurter Zeitung and the Berliner Tageblatt are made, for them their tone is tuned, and on them finally they exercise their influence. By avoiding most carefully all forms seeming outwardly rude, they nevertheless pour the poison from other vessels into the hearts of their readers. (Mein Kampf, Page 334-335.)

Hitler realizes he must eliminate the Jews because they control the press, and the only way that the Nazis can gain support is through the press. Hitler then goes into detail about how great the Aryan nation is and how belittled the Jews are. Hitler writes about the Jews, “The Jew remains united only if forced by a common danger or is attracted by a common booty…If the Jews were alone in this world, they would suffocate as much in dirt and filth, as they would carry on a detestable struggle to chat and to ruin each other…” (Mein Kampf, Page 416.) From this passage Hitler truly believes that the Jews have no place on this earth and that they serve no purpose in helping humankind advance. Through his writings in Mein Kampf Hitler was able to create a following that believed

    He states and restates that the Aryan race is the supreme race of the world and that the Jews are at the bottom. So for the Aryan race to succeed and grow, Hitler strongly believes that a pure Aryan blood is the answer. He says that many Aryan conquerors have failed to maintain power because they start to mix with those who are conquered. In his book he heavily belittles the Jews by denouncing them imitators, egoistic, and destructive. According to him they are imitators because “his [Jewish] intelligence is not the result of his own development, but of visual instruction through foreigners” (Hitler, Pg. 134). He also believes that they have “no culture of their own”, and that the “sham” of the culture they have is the “property of other people”. He also expresses his view about that Jew’s egoistic and lack of self sacrificing nature. He describes the Jews as only looking out for themselves and claiming that they are only “united when a common danger forces him [Jews] to be” (Hitler, 135). He professes that if Jews were left alone in the world then their destructive nature would lead them to exterminate one another. Other reason for his allegation that Jews are destructive include that they destroy the property they own and that they destroy other cultures. He comes to the conclusion that those who are not pure Aryan blood are “chaff”,

    In the Summer of 1941, Adolf Hitler started exterminating Jews and other non-Aryans, as a part of his plan to create a perfect Germany and to carry out his ‘Final Solution’ to the ‘Jewish Question’. Before exterminating 6,000,000 Jewish people, Adolf Hitler had already performed several actions which singled out the Jew as an evil person and one who should be killed. In 1923, Hitler was caught while trying to overturn the Bavarian government and was imprisoned for 5 years. In prison, he wrote the famed autobiography, Mein Kampf, in which he stated his first publicly known anti-Semitic beliefs and his ‘Final Solution’ to the ‘Jewish Question’. While imprisoned, there was a worldwide depression as economic markets crashed worldwide. This would help Hitler because once out of prison he would use this to help gain power both for the Nazi’s and for himself politically by promising better things to come in the future. In 1933, while preaching in front of a large Nazi crowd, Hitler used the Jews as scapegoats for Germany’s loss in World War One. “If at the beginning of the War and during the War twelve or fifteen thousand of these Hebrew corrupters of the people had been held under poison gas, as happened to hundreds of thousands of our very best German workers in the field, the sacrifice of millions at the front would not have been in vain.'; Many people were upset at the loss, and blaming the Jews made many people anti-Semites. Once he was named chancellor in 1933, Hitler preached about creating a Germany for true German people and a more centralized Germany. This included eliminating those who were non-Aryans and/or non-German. He would later detail about what a true German was in the Nuremberg Laws. He stated that Jews were not really Germans but instead, they were non-Aryan, and they were malignant tumors.
