No. A concentration camp is a concentration camp. Gallows is a structure erected as a platform with a trap door from which a person can be hung. The idea of hanging jews was not a practical one, as it would have required too much time and effort. Different methods were tried, including jammed them into vans where the exhaust was fed inside, but even this was too slow. Finally after years of experimentation the gas chamber and the adjacent crematorium was developed.

The jews were NOT the first people targeted by Hitler. They came almost as an afterthought. Jewish propaganda would have you believe that Hitler was only after the jews, but this is not true at all. The Gypsies were among the first group Hitler sought to eliminate, along with the sick, the disabled, the mentally ill, and deformed children. The systematic destruction of the jews only came much later. The jews would have you believe, quite incorrectly, that Hitler only sought to kill jews, which is an unfair view of history. This, by the way, is what Ahmahdinejad meant by saying there was no holocaust. There have been many massacres on a far greater scale yet the jews wrongly only count their own as being of any importance. This was the point Ahmahdinejad was trying to make, yet jewish sympathizers missed the whole point and went off on some irelevant, meaningless rant

The so-called "Holocaust" likewise was a relatively minor affair in that other dictators have killed far more of their own people than Hitler ever did. Josef Statin dispatched about 25 million Russians and Mao an even greater number of Chinese, so the 6 million or so jews wiped out by Hitler pales by comparison.

The date 1922 was just before Hitler staged is attempted coup. By 1922 he was feeling pretty sure of his ability to topple the government by revolutionary means. After landing in jail he decided he would have to do it legally. The 9 months he spent in jail was when he wrote Mein Kampf.

A gallow is a structure from which people are hanged to death. The importance of the date is that it shows Hitlers mindset towards Jews long before he came into power.

Gallows is the structure used to hang a person. The letter was written before Hitler wrote, Mein Kamph, his manifesto of how to take power in Germany.

a gallows is where people were hanged.

The date is important because it's written 15 years before Hitler came to power, and so it's clear that he already has a plan, this early

the gallows are a long line of hangman's nooses that are used to execute massive ammounts of people at one time...the date is important because it was written roughly 10 yrs. before he came into power and shows his mindset and hatred towards the jewish race at an earlier stage than most people associate with hitler...
