Answer 1

b.He believed that Jews were to blame for Germany's defeat in World War I

Answer 2

The correct answer is "B".

Adolf Hitler served as a soldier and was actually involved in combat during World War I. He strongly believed that the cause of the German defeat was the political treason of opposing German parties at the time, who were formed by a majority of Jewish Germans. He "nicknamed" this political maneuvering by the Social-Democrats in Germany as a "stab in the back".
