Off-topic: That's why I like Buddhists. They dont' try to force ANYONE to convert (except a few Indian kings a few centuries ago, but as a whole they're pretty cool).
One thing: Hitler waged his war on the stance of racism. It was all the craze to blame Jews for everything at the time. Hitler got most of his ideas on how to persecute the Jews from the Catholic Church. Even the famed "Protestant Reformation" leader Martin Luther was EXTREMELY against Jews. He condoned hate crimes and even murdering of them.
Look at what the father of the Protestant faith has to say about Jews.
Germany needed someone to blame for their failure to win World War 1. They were content to believe that Jews who had infiltrated the highest levels of the Germany government surrendered to the Allies when they could still win the war.
Jews have always been persecuted. A large majority of Russian Tsars persecuted the Jews. Kaiser Wilhelm II persecuted the Jews to some degree. Strangely, Bismarck didn't, instead choosing to persecute the Catholics with Kulturkampf.
