in 1939 it was moral to discriminate against Jews.

Not only in 1939. For centuries, it was moral in any society dominated by Christians to discriminate against Jews. We have people like Martin Luther to thank for that.

And today, there are still people who believe it's moral to discriminate against Jews. Examples: The BDS supporters, or some people in Palestine or Iran.

Thanks captain obvious so Hitler was a good leader then?

We should not fear violence, the midwife of new societies, but violence should be unleashed at that precise moment in which the leaders have found the most favorable circumstances
