no, but the conditions of the camps from 1941 onwards was hidden.
It was that Adolf Hitler started to send people to concentration camps, we and other countries soon tried to put an end to this and try to stop Hitler and his Nazi soldiers.
If someone was caught harboring a Jew, then they usually were brought to the concentration camps alos and got the same treatment as the Jews.
Because some of the countries of the world, may rise up, and try to pull a Hitler on us
They left the camps to try to return home.
to eliminate all of the Jewish people. Hitler tried to do this because his mother died in a Jewish hospital when Hitler was a little boy. so, to avenge his mother he put Jewish people in concentration camps and used them to dig war trenches and other harsh "jobs." if the Jewish people in the concentration camps were to weak to work they were put in a gas chamber or they were tortured then shot.
The USAAF bombed Auschwitz III because it produced chemicals (plastics), but apart from that the Allies have been severely criticized for not bombing concentration camps. Please see the related question.
As early as the first months of 1942, word was already filtering back that the "work camps" were death houses. Only about 10% of all people incarcerated in the concentration camps lived through the experience. Being Jewish, the Franks, like all Jews at that time, dedicated their lives to trying to stay out of the camps.
They basically coudn`t hide but people would try to go to other countries like the United States
You mean in remote, out of the way places? My opinion would be that concentration camps were built in remote areas to discourage escape and to keep the brutality and inhumanity as far away from the public eye as possible.
In order to avoid being sent to a death camp many Jews had to hide. In the second world war Hitler decided that he would try and rid the world of Jews. Any Jew from any age group (babies, children, women, men) in places like Germany, Poland and Russia were sent to labour camps or death camps. They were either slaves to the government being fed next to nothing or if they were deemed not "useful" for the government they would be killed straight away. Of course the plan was to in the end kill all Jews. By the end of the holocaust six million Jews were killed and no one had bothered to save them. Over a million of these people were children. We can only hope that this kind of cruel mass murder never happens again. true dat
There were no Polish concentration camps during World War Two. Poland was attacked by Germany in September 1939 and occupied till 1945. All concentration camps on the Polish territory were built and operated by the German government. The term "Polish concentration camps" is highly abusive to Poles as millions of Polish citizens, of whom most were of Jewish origin, were killed there. By the German Nazis. To make it clear. Above agreed 100%. Note also that Poland was 100 miles further East between the World Wars, the border got shifted to take in a lot of Germany in 1945 when Soviet Russia had a major say in carving up Europe. So some concentration camps that were in Nazi Germany are now geographically in Poland. Try to find an historical atlas to fully understand! Also agreed. The camps should be referred to as Nazi German camps. In practice, the use of the term Polish concentration camps is usually lazy, not malicious. Some people also refer in the context of the Holocaust to Jewish concentration camps (!).
Vague questiona but incinerators were used to burn Jews after being gassed in many death camps in Poland.
