Answer: C. The Nazis sought to rid Germany of Jews, whom they saw as ethnically inferior to the Aryan race.

Explanation: The Nazis believed that they are superior race came from the universe and their tendency was to extend the living space necessary for superior race, as well as to clear that space from any inferior race, in the first place from the Jews. In addition, the Nazis considered the Jews to be the main culprits for the bad economic situation in Germany. Jews, on the other hand, regarded themselves as a chosen nation, not Communists, nor the Aryans, and as such did not advocate the abolition of social classes. Also, given the fact that Jews were settled throughout Europe, they never stood up against the Aryans or against anyone, on the contrary they were often the victims of various massacres throughout Europe.
