Six million Jews died in the death camps along with thousands of Poles, homosexuals, mentally retarded etc. The program is today known as the Holocaust.

Jews, criminals, homosexuals, gypsies, little people, the mentally ill and many others were imprisoned and killed in concentration camps. Only a few able-bodied people were kept at death camps, so as to do all of the work required at a death camp. Everyone else taken to a death camp was killed.
