They were treated poorly! Horrible! The Nazis starved them, beat them,did whatever they could to put them through hell!!! They felt good about it, too. They also used them as targets, they would play a game called 'rabbit hunt' and stick a piece of paper on their back (on the left side) and make the Jews run and they would practice shooting at them. The Nazis looked down upon the Jews and treated them as though they were below human. They sent some of them to gas chambers and if one of them were too sick to work they would be sent to death camps to, you guessed it, die.

They worked them very hard and fed them little food and water. this made many Jews die a premature death. Older people, sick people, handicaps, and really young children were hit hardest because they are not as able as the other prisoners.

Right before the Holocaust Jews only got a taste of what was yet to come. They were forced to give up all Bikes, Jewelry, photo albums, ext. They were not allowed in public places such as movie theaters, parks, certain stores, they were even banned from going to school. Even just going out in public was dangerous because there were beatings in the streets and hangings.

Do kids had to go to concentration camps Holocaust?

I don't think so, probably only if they could work. Mostly, they were killed.Added: Yes, even children were sent to the Concentration Camps - reason being is that the people being sent there thought they were only going to work camps and didn't know they were going to be killed. The Nazi's feared that if the children were forcibly removed from the parents prior to their reaching the camps, there would be rioting among the Jews, et al, that even they wouldn't be able to suppress. So entire families were sent to the camps so that the children could be removed from the parents under tightly controlled and secure conditions.


What role did antisemitism play in Germany during World War 2?

It resulted in the destruction of almost all of European Jewry. Possibly 6,000,000 of whom were murdered in extermination camps, shot in the streets of their home cities, gassed by the thousand in mobile vans, and died of starvation in Ghettos into which they were herded prior to them being sent for gassing and burning, largely in Poland in specially provided murder camps such as Auschwich, Treblinka, Majdanek etc etc etc.

What were internment camps before they were used on Japanese Americans?

Some conspiracy theorists claim the camps were built prior to Dec. 7. In a few cases, existing buildings, such as well-used smelly horse stables at racetracks, were used. Another example is former Civilian Conservation Corps camps out in the hills. In Hawaii, some camps were simple canvas tents with a fence around them. Most internment camps were located and built new specifically to house the internees, and after the war, fell into disuse. For example, ex-POW Gerald Coffee recalled that as a child in California, his family moved to Reno Nevada after the Pearl Harbor attack because his father left his lumberyard employment for a long term construction job near there. Years, later, he discovered the job was the construction of an internment camp!
