When the first concentration camp was opened in 1933, Heinrich Himmler held a press conference. What conclusion can be drawn from the fact that Himmler did not try to hide the existence of the concentration camp?


People understood that the camp was to house political prisoners, not a place to kill Jews.


He did not believe that anyone would object to the extermination of Jews at that time.


Even at that point, Himmler and the other Nazis were proud of the future they worked toward.


Himmler knew that there were spies who would report about the camps anyway.
