The question isn't, "is national-socialism socialism?" It clearly is. It's in the name, it's creators have admitted as much, and have elaborated to support their arguments for our own understanding. The challenge is researching how each country employed their variant of national socialist policy to address concerns within their nation.
However, the real question a person should be asking is, "what are the differences between international socialism, sometimes referred to as **** and ****?" What were the respective goals of the differing socio-political/socio-economic ideologies that provoked one to be promoted by one group and vilified by another? Once you understand those differences, you might begin to understand why European elites felt it necessary to employ the Jewish community in the ways that they have against the general population and to what ends these strategies served.
