I think your conclusion about German genocide being based on religion has a pretty large blind spot. The Nazis executed based on ethnicity (slavs, Roma people…), not to mention sexual proclivities or even disabilities. Also, the Nazi Holocaust wasn’t the first German genocide of the 20th century, which Germany kickstarted in 1904 by genociding the Herrero and Nama peoples of Namibia, then colonial German South West Africa. So I believe the racial stereotypes are a part and parcel of most European bigotry and not in any way exclusive to the US.

The focus on the Jews on western discourse is a way to down play the crimes committed by Germans against other people in Europe. Holocaust is bad, mmkay, we apologized to the Jews and we now support Israeli Jews doing a genocide in Gaza. We are even!
