In the course of centuries the Jews who lived there had become Europeanized in external appearance and were so much like other human beings that I even looked upon them as Germans. The reason why I did not then perceive the absurdity of such an illusion was that the only external mark which I recognized as distinguishing them from us was the practice of their strange religion. As I thought that they were persecuted on account of their faith my aversion to hearing remarks against them grew almost into a feeling of abhorrence. I did not in the least suspect that there could be such a thing as a systematic antisemitism. Once, when passing through the inner City, I suddenly encountered a phenomenon in a long caftan and aring black side-locks. My first thought was: Is this a Jew? They certainly did not have this appearance in Linz. I carefully watched the man stealthily and cautiously but the longer I gazed at the strange countenance and examined it feature by feature, the more the question shaped itself in my brain Is this a German?" - Even if this was true, he still got dinner from nobel jewish people, and they even offered to sell his paintings - Hitler served in France and Belgium in the 16th Bavarian Reserve Regiment, and ended the war as a german - Hitler's job was a runner, and he served in many major battles - Hitler was twice decorated for bravery.

When it went to a vote, Hitler won 543 to 1 votes - Hitler and some of his followers meet at a beer hall with berlin government officals in and demanded that they make a new government, at gunpoint, he denied, escaping as fast as he could - The next day, hitler led a march in berlin, 16 of his men were shot, and Hitler was arrested - Hitler served 1 year in jail, and in his time, wrote //Mein Kamph// - Hitler was chancelor of germany in 1933
