Who created the Holocaust and why?

Jews were involved in the Holocaust because the Nazi rejected their religion.

The Nazis hated the Jews primarily on ethnic or racial, not religious grounds. In fact, it had just about nothing to do with religion. The Nazis saw the Jews as the 'biological root' of Communism.

Millions of people were involved in the Holocaust. It affected the lives of almost all Jews in Europe (approximately six million were killed) as well as gypsies, homosexuals, and other minority groups. It was perpetrated by Adolf Hitler, Himmler, the Nazi Party and other Germans, and Europeans in occupied countries who collaborated with the Germans or looked the other way.
