Why did Hitler and his nazi party want all the Jews eliminated?

They held the Jews responsible for Germany's hard times.

The Nazis thought Germans were part of a "superior race," and inferior people should be killed because they were holding back the superior people. This is actually a theme that is repeated frequently throughout history, whenever some people decide that they are better than some other people, no matter the reason.

How were Jews treated before the war?

Much of Europe was very antisemitic (Germany was initially not the worst offender in this regard) and laws restricting what they could and couldn't do were very specific; things like how and where they could be educated, when they could go to certain places, what they were allowed to do.

____

In many European countries Jews were full citizens from about 1870 (or earlier in some countries) till the Nazis came to power. The main countries that still had anti-Jewish laws in this period were Russia, Poland, Hungary, Romania, and Spain. In practice things were hard for Jews in some occupations, but that's not the same as a legal ban or quota.

When the Nazis came to power in Germany in 1933 they imposed discriminatory legislation, and later began killing European Jews in vast numbers.

How do the prisoners get from Birkenau to Auschwitz and what are their first impressions of this new camp?

Birkenau was the new camp.

They would get there by foot. At the time that they would travel from one to the other, it would be during the construction phase, ie. when they were still building brick buildings and the railway line would not go all of the way into Birkenau, it would still be uninhabitted. Their first impression would be that it was boring, there would have been a large field with some buildings on it and a tree line in the distance.

--Answer--

Parents and schools should do a better job to educate children from a young age to accept all human beings as equals. Parents and schools should educate children about the holocaust and all other genocides that happened in history and teach them in new ways to improve the world for all people. in my opinion we should all become one unified government and religion so that all people are created equal and there won't be any other political differences

Although like many Jews they Gypsy's were treated the worst (other than the Jews) because of their race. They were used as targets to the Nazi.

The number of Jewish survivors from concentration camps, labour camps and the like still alive at the end of World War 2 in Europe is estimated at 200,000. (Please see the related question).
