Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Anti-semitism" is a form of prejudice against Jews. It is an age-old prejudice prevailing in society. Anti-semitism took its ugly turn during the Nazis in Germany when millions of Jews were killed.

In Nazi Germany, the army spread the myth that Germany did not lose the war because of the army but because of Jews, who betrayed their country. This myth extinguished hatred among German against Jews, resulting in the slaughter of millions of Jews.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B. Adolf Hitler blamed Jews for the prevailing problem in German, igniting hatred in the hearts of people.
