It generally depended on who was involved. Western European prisoners were treated much better than Eastern European prisoners. Eastern Europeans were most often killed or died of starvation. They were often made into slave laborers. Of the Western European prisoners, the British & Americans were treated better than the French, Belgian, Dutch or Italian (after Italy surrendered to the Allies) prisoners. Normally British & Americans were not killed or treated as slave laborers. The French, Belgian, Dutch & Italians were often sent to slave labor camps, and starved. Of the Germans that held prisoners, the SS were the worse offenders against prisoners, and the Luftwaffe (Air Force) treated their prisoners the best. Also civilian prisoners were treated worse than military prisoners.

What enable you to survive Auschwitz?
Non-Jewish prisoners had a much better chance than Jewish prisoners. For example the British POWs were used as slave labour, but were treared much better with proper food rations and were not subject to random beatings. Soviet POWs were not treated much better that Jewish prisoners and almost all of them were worked to death. Political prisoners and criminals were generally given positions or responsibility, they were kapos, which meant that they would be able to take rations from others. For the Jewish inmates, who were the majority, their choices were limited. If they could get an indoor job, especially one in the 'Kanada' section, or in the kitchens they stood a better chance of not dieing from exposure or illness, but were still subject to 'selection' or random beatings. In general it was down to luck if they survived.

Well in my opinion, prisoners gave up their rights when they took someone else's away. What happened to the inmates' victims rights? Prisoners are treated better then Vietnam vets that have to live on the streets. Who cares about the rights of prisoners, they shouldn't have any. Why should the law work to help the prisoners always?
