Because they were fed very little - and nowhere near enough. If you had to live on a concentration camp diet you, too, would be starving ...

What times in the day were Jews fed and what did they feed them?

Jews are not animals, they feed themselves like any other human being. In fact, they even have unique styles of cuisine which match their dietary restrictions. Jews have mealtimes at the same general time as non-Jews (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). If, perhaps, this question was referring to when Jews were fed in Concentration Camps, where Jews were deprived of the ability and resources to make their own food, please see the Related Question below.

How do Jews of sight deny what the Nazis are doing in Europe?

The Jews were tricked by the Nazi Germans. The Jews and the general populace of Germany bought all the lies the Nazi Germans fed them about the Jews and the concentration camps. Most Germans believed the death camps were work camps and war manufacturing places - they are the ones who lived in denial because they feared for their lives and rightly so. They knew they were not labor camps. You could smell the stink of death from more than a mile a way. They knew. Many Jews escaped or fled to the forests in various countries. Some managed to make it to the US and the presidential cabinet heard the horrid truth about the concentration camps.
