Hitler collected all the Jews and told them that im taking you to a new town but unfortunately he took them to concentration camps sights. Hitler treated everyone in the camp sights really bad they weren't feed good they had to wear shoes and wear blue and white stripe clothing. the Jews were told to go in and have showers so Jews couldn't believe them self's having showers but it wasn't showers it was gas chambers he killed like 150 people in just like 15min then after that he would burn them and get the next group into the gas chambers. he would also kill the Jews by shooting them or starvation witch he wouldn't feed them so they died. the jews were in a really poor condition they were naked, dirty and they smelt really bad so they looked like animals which helped to reinforce the Nazi propaganda.
