Extract: German dictator Adolf Hitler's hatred for Jews may have stemmed from his belief that his mother was poisoned to death by a Jewish doctor, a new book has claimed.
In his book titled *November 9: How World War One Led To The Holocaust,*author Joachim Riecker claims that the death of Hitler's mother Klara, who was diagnosed with breast cancer, left an indelible mark on the then 18-year-old Adolf. Klara's doctor, Eduard Bloch, had administered iodoform on her which was then the standard treatment for breast cancer, Ha'aretz reported. She died from the treatment in 1907 at a young age of 47. "Hitler never forgave the Jewish doctor," Riecker told *The Telegraph.* "In conversations with aides such as Josef Goebbels, Hitler referred to the Jews as being like TB and himself as a 'healer' who had to stamp it, and consequently them, out," Riecker noted. http://www.hindustantimes.com/News-Feed/books/Mother-s-death-affected-Hitler-claims-book/Article1-484334.aspx
