Why did Germans formulate racial discrimination policies against Jews in World War II?
At that time, Hitler thought that the Germanic nation was a nation with good blood and the Jews were inferior, so he wanted to kill all inferior nations and maintain a country with good blood. Jews have money, because in Germany at that time, Germans lived a very underground life and were exploited by Jews. The treaty that failed in World War I was aimed at Germany. Hitler's speech was very popular, which was to express the voice of the Germans at that time and inspire them to carry out an "anti-Semitic frenzy" for their own conspiracy! In the past 50 years, people have done a lot of research and analysis on the historical suspense of why Hitler slaughtered 6 million Jews in World War II. Now there are two popular views in Europe: one is "teleology"; The second is the "functional theory". However, from the essence of these two viewpoints, they seem reasonable in historical logic, but there are obvious contradictions with historical facts. A teleologist believes that Hitler killed Jews for world hegemony, which is a conventional logical inference. If that's the case, why didn't Hitler oppose the extermination policy against other peoples in the world who resisted his hegemony, such as Jews? Anyone with a little knowledge of history knows that during the second occupation, the people of European countries, including the German people, fought bravely and unyieldingly against Hitler's attempt to dominate the world and his fascist atrocities. The anti-fascist struggle of the people of European countries constituted a serious obstacle to Hitler's rampage. However, the Nazis did not treat these local European peoples like Jews from beginning to end, that is to say, Hitler did not adopt genocide policies and atrocities against these local peoples from beginning to end. People can't help asking, in order to achieve his evil goal, why did Hitler only take such terrible atrocities against Jews, but "lenient" to other nations that hindered his goal? Obviously, the inference of teleology ignores the concrete logic of this historical fact. Functionalists believe that the massacre of millions of Jews is the revenge mentality of fascism and the behavior driven by psychological compensation when the war is defeated. This inference is even more untenable. The historical facts of World War II show that the real defeat of Nazi Germany in the war should be marked by the Battle of Stalingrad, which ended on February 2, 1943. Objectively speaking, before this, the Germans had been in an offensive position militarily, and even in the strategic thinking within the Nazi German leadership group, there was no premonition of losing Lien Chan. However, before the defeat of the war, fascism had already started the crime of killing Jews. 1939 September, shortly after the outbreak of World War II, German fascists occupied Poland and brutally killed countless unarmed innocent civilians, most of whom were Polish Jews. 1941June 23rd, when the Wang Hu conference passed the resolution of "finally solving the Jewish problem", Nazi Germany was still in an advantageous position in the European battlefield. This historical fact irrefutably tells people that Hitler's massacre of millions of Jews was a long-planned and intensified atrocity. Practically speaking, neither teleology nor functionalism has got rid of the shackles of the general thinking framework that people usually discuss historical events in the social and historical fields. When people examine human behavior or historical events and explore their causes, they often first examine their motives. As for why there is such a motive and there is no such motive, it is not enough to explore. "Skopos Theory" or "Functionalism Theory" can be classified as "Motivation Theory" in essence, although their specific contents are different. In fact, looking for motivation is only the beginning to understand human behavior or historical events. If we can take this opportunity to study deeply, we can not only find out the real reason, but even confirm whether our original motives are accurate, so as to continuously enrich and improve our views. Practice tells us that human motivation is not the cause of behavior to a large extent, but the intermediary between cause and behavior, and the reasons are complicated. The emergence, development and extinction of anything is the result of many factors, all of which have their profound background and realistic reasons. So are human behavior and historical events. People's behavior has a purpose, but this does not mean that the purpose must be the cause of the behavior, but at most it can be regarded as an element of the cause, and even in some cases the purpose is the behavior itself. As far as all its contents are concerned, the reasons are profound. Hitler killed more than 6 million Jews with the obvious aim of exterminating the Jewish nation. The reason is that he must answer why he wants to exterminate the Jews. Secondly, from the historical analysis, Nazi Germany's atrocities of persecuting Jews have roughly gone through three stages. These three stages are interrelated and gradually upgraded. The first stage: from1933,65438+1October 30th when Hitler came to power to1October 9th on the eve of "Night of Broken Glass". At this stage, the core of anti-semitism in Nazi Germany was from restriction to deprivation of Jewish citizenship. Formally, it basically maintained a "moderate" state of "gentlemen talk but don't do it", but in essence it cleared the economic and political obstacles for them to finally eliminate Jews. 193365438+1On October 30th, Hitler was elected as German Chancellor, and his crazy persecution of Jews began. Since then, disaster has befallen the Jews. At first, Nazi Germany took measures to suppress Jews. Jews are mainly forbidden to be civil servants, judges, lawyers and doctors. Jews are not allowed to enter public places of entertainment; Don't buy things from Jewish shops. The implementation of this policy restricted the rights of Jews in many aspects such as economy, politics and social life, and reduced the social status of German Jews to "second-class citizens". 1September 5, 935, the Nazi party held a congress in Nuremberg, further escalating the policy of suppressing Jews. At the meeting, Hitler announced a new law to deprive Jews of their civil rights, reducing Jews from "second-class citizens" to "national residents" who have no right to vote and stand for election, and since then they have lost their rights as citizens and all legal guarantees. Then Nazi Germany forcibly expelled these "local residents" and immigrated to other countries and regions according to this new law, thus completing the upgrade from restriction to deprivation of Jewish rights. The second stage: from "Night of Broken Glass" in 1938+0 1.9 to "Wang Hu Conference" in 1942+0.20. At this stage, the core of Nazi Germany's anti-semitism was to deprive Jews of their right to exist as human beings from basic human rights, and formally completed all preparations for the catastrophe of Jews from wealth to life and from spirit to body, that is, maintained the transition from "literature" to "martial arts", and finally only the Jews were finally eliminated from body to body. 1938165438+1October 9, after careful planning by Hitler and Goebbels, under the direction and encouragement of the Nazi leadership group, an anti-Semitic tragedy called "Night of Broken Glass" (also translated as "Crystal Night") broke out. That night, fascists from all over Germany and Austria took to the streets, waving sticks, beating, smashing, looting and burning Jewish houses, shops and churches, openly persecuting and humiliating Jews. In this tragedy, according to statistics, 36 Jews were killed, 36 were seriously injured, 267 churches were burned, more than 7,500 Jewish shops were smashed, and more than 30,000 Jewish men were arrested at home and taken to Dachau, Buchenwald and Saxony Hausen concentration camps, all of whom were killed or tortured to death. The economic loss of breaking glass alone is as high as 6 million marks. On the third day after the ugly drama was staged, many German ministers convened by Goering to hold a special meeting on Jews, planning to deprive Jews of their dignity and rights as human beings. Forcing Jews to clean up the burnt church and build it into a parking lot for Germany to use; Forcing every Jew to wear insulting signs; Forcing persecuted Jews to compensate the Nazis for 654.38 billion marks. As some historians have said, "this kind of atrocities and the measures taken according to their goals have put the life of Jews without any organization in a desperate situation." 1939 September, Nazi Germany invaded Poland and massacred Jews. Since then, a large-scale action plan to slaughter the Jewish nation has been implemented. The following spring, when the Nazi German leadership group was actively planning the genocide against the Jewish nation, it entrusted this evil task to the security department of the SS and the special action team of the secret police. 1On June 23rd, 943, the Soviet-German War broke out. The world anti-fascist war has entered the most difficult years, at the same time, Hitler's crime of arresting and killing Jews has further intensified. The SS and the Special Operations Team, following the attacking troops, used the most barbaric and cruel means in the world to destroy Jews. These murdered Jews were all killed without any defense. According to Laiszky, a senior SS officer and police commander in central Russia, he later confirmed: "The surprising fact is that they were completely unprepared. It used to be said that Jews plotted to dominate the world and were very organized. This proves that all this is a lie. No country is so unprepared for its own disaster. Nothing is prepared, absolutely not. " Extinction was carried out in a conventional and leisurely manner as planned. When they arrived at a place, they "immediately got the names of rabbis and intellectuals from local residents, summoned them, and ordered them to summon all local Jews to register and register for resettlement." Jewish residents know nothing about Nazi plans and often believe. " The "moving away" mentioned in the testimony refers to killing people, burying them alive and escorting them to concentration camps. The commander also described a tragic scene. At that time, the mass media in the Soviet Union failed to report Nazi anti-Semitic crimes according to the provisions of the Soviet-German non-aggression treaty, which made most Soviet Jews simply unaware of the imminent death and did not take any preventive measures. Throughout the European war zone, a massacre of Jews has been fully launched. The third stage: 1942 to 65438+1October 20th, the infamous "Wang Hu Conference" began until the anti-fascist war of World War II defeated Nazi Germany. At this stage, the core of Nazi Germany's anti-Semitism was to "finally solve" the Jews, in the form of a completely brutal and appalling massacre, the essence of which was to finally realize the extinction of the Jews. 1942 1.2 under the auspices of heydrich, the head of Nazi secret police, senior officials of 14 department, including Miao Lei, the head of Gestapo, met in a villa next to Wang Hu (also translated as Wan Hu) to study the plan of mass systematic massacre of Jews. The meeting adopted the "final solution" method of transporting Jews to work in the East. To put it bluntly, the "final solution" means poisoning or torturing Jews, torturing them to death. In short, the final is elimination. After the "Wang Hu Conference", Nazi Germany carried out the measures of mass extermination of Jews. According to a conversation of Eichmann 1944, the first-class assault captain of the SS who was in charge of searching for and destroying Jews at that time, it was confirmed that more than 4 million people died in the extermination camp and 2 million people were killed by other means. Except for a few anti-fascist ethnic groups, most of them are Jews. Tracing back to history is to illustrate the problem. The above historical facts show that: ① During the 12 years of Hitler's dictatorship, he pursued a series of anti-Semitic and anti-Semitic policies, all aimed at depriving Jews of their right to subsistence and development until they were physically eliminated. All these are only differences in form and degree, and there is no substantive difference. When a person is deprived of all the rights to exist as a person, it is only a matter of time before he is destroyed by the body. So it can be said that Hitler's murder ran through three stages of his anti-Semitism escalation. If you insist on distinguishing, then the first stage can be described as making various preparations for killing; The second stage is to expose the murder; The third stage should be characterized as full-scale killing. "After the Wang Hu Conference, the Nazi massacre of millions of Jews can only be regarded as the last step for Hitler to" finally solve "the Jewish problem. In fact, racial revenge and vendetta have already begun. (2) Hitler's murder was aimed at exterminating the entire Jewish nation, but it was never open to other nations. This is by no means his kindness. It contains the concrete logic of Hitler's creation of this historical mystery and becomes an opportunity for us to solve this historical unsolved case.
