> I wonder how Nazi-Germany would have worked out without antisemitism.
That was often heard in Germany after the war. Hitler's politics were not seen as bad, if only the jews were not killed. Often, it was mentioned that Hitler's achievement was to reduce the mass unemployment after getting to power in 1933.
* the main goal of the Nazis was to conquer and enslave East Europe.
* for that the Nazis transformed Germany into a war machine
* the war to enlarge Germany was the defining goal and everything was forced to support that goal
* generally Nazi ideology was racist and brutal. There were lots of groups which were to be killed and/or enslaved.
* it was a Dictatorship with Hitler as a "Führer"
Even if Nazi Germany were not "antisemitic" it would still have started the war in the East to conquer East Europe as a colony (-> "Lebensraum" -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lebensraum ).
