The Continuing Scourge of Anti-Semitism
Though anti-Semitism — like all hatred aimed at groups — is an irrational hatred, it has a very long history. And the causes and consequences of this hatred are objectionable. ...

While some have theorized that Hitler’s public hatred of the Jews was driven more by politics than any personal animosity, it appears that he had harbored such vitriol from his youth. His teenage friend August Kubizek recalled that one day as the two adolescents were walking around their home town of Linz, Austria, Hitler pointed to a Jewish synagogue and said that the building “doesn’t belong in Linz.”
As Hitler rose to power in Germany, his anti-Jewish tirades were not considered all that unusual to the Jews in Germany. After all, they had experienced such vicious anti-Semitic prejudice for centuries.
