To Germans, jews are an abomination of their beliefs. They believed that jews are controlling, manipulative, power hungry, emotionless, useless, and ugly, Germans believed that jews wanted to control the Germany or maybe the world and that they wanted to enslave the Germans to help their dirty work.
