Ruth Kelly, the Education Secretary, has been asked to force the withdrawal of a poem for schoolchildren written from the viewpoint of Adolf Hitler.
...
The poem's author, Gideon Taylor, writes: "Jews are here, Jews are there, Jews are almost everywhere, filling up the darkest places, evil looks upon their faces. "Make them take many paces for being one of the worst races, on their way to a gas chamber, where they will sleep in their manger."
One line of the poem states "Adolf Hitler is my name," and ends with the words: "And for what price? World domination." It was published in an anthology called Great Minds by the Forward Press group, which said 452 copies had been printed.
