Sergei Lavrov was asked how Russia could claim it was fighting to "de-Nazify" Ukraine

Israel has reacted with fury after Russia's foreign minister claimed that Nazi leader Adolf Hitler "had Jewish blood".

Sergei Lavrov made the comments to try to justify Russia's portrayal of Ukraine as "Nazi" despite the fact that its president is Jewish.
Israel's foreign ministry summoned Russia's ambassador for "clarification" and demanded an apology.
Nazi Germany murdered six million Jews in the Holocaust in World War Two.

Mr Lavrov made the remarks in an interview on Italian TV programme Zona Bianca on Sunday,
days after Israel marked Holocaust Remembrance Day,
one of the most solemn occasions in the Israeli calendar.

When asked how Russia can claim that it is fighting to "de-Nazify" Ukraine when President Volodymyr Zelensky is himself Jewish,
Mr Lavrov said: "I could be wrong, but Hitler also had Jewish blood. [That Zelensky is Jewish] means absolutely nothing.
Wise Jewish people say that the most ardent anti-Semites are usually Jews."

The minister's statement was met with outrage across Israel's political spectrum.
Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said: "Such lies are meant to blame the Jews themselves for the most terrible crimes in history
and thus free the oppressors of the Jews from their responsibility.
"No war today is the Holocaust or is like the Holocaust."

Israeli foreign minister Yair Lapid reacted angrily, calling Mr Lavrov's words "unforgivable".

Adolf Hitler: Was Hitler Jewish?

I had heard of that claim a long time ago and never checked the source, but this web site says no and why.

Another web site signifying his mother was a Catholic.

Was Hitler Jewish?

This web site below did say that a Jewish doctor was in the care of his mother, and I do have to wonder if Adolf was vengeful for her dying under his care because of him being so close to her.

Who Was Hitler's Mother?

It would make sense, but we may not know for sure until Adolf is judged by God come Judgment Day.
