Answer:

Many believed that the Jews were planning to take control of the German parliament.

The German government promoted the idea that Jews were the cause of the communist revolution in 1917 and had contributed to Germany's defeat in World War I. Germany was a fascist country, strongly opposed to communism because if its anti-nationalist ideals, and its ruling Nazi Party promoted the idea that Jews might force communism on Germany as well.
