An
entire high school class in Germany is being investigated after the
teenage pupils allegedly started greeting each other with 'Heil Hitler'
and communicating in Nazi slogans.
Parents
and authorities are horrified after it emerged that some of the 29
student have been swapping Nazi sayings and slogans throughout the
school day on instant messaging-app WhatsApp.
Photos
of students aged 14 and 15 at a school near Leipzig in east Germany
show them giving Nazi salutes and wearing Hitler moustaches.
Students
in class 9A at the Landsberg Gymnasiums near Leipzig regularly made
anti-Jewish slurs on the messaging app, while praising Hitler as a
'great man,' local media reported.
Photos
appeared in Germany's biggest newspaper BILD on Tuesday showing
individuals giving the Hitler salute. One boy who was wearing a stuck-on
Hitler moustache had his face blacked out.
Gampel, the former head of the local Halle Jewish Community, said his son had experienced harassment at the school.
'My
son told me that someone had stuck a far-right NPD [National Democratic
Party] sticker on his jacket. It was well known, it seems, that he was
Jewish.'
'I
have made a formal complaint with police for an investigation, but on
the other hand it would definitely be the wrong thing to simply accuse
the entire class and tar them with the same brush.'
He
said: 'Even after I read about it, I found it difficult to get him to
talk about what went on. It was only through a lengthy discussion that
he admitted what was in the newspaper article was essentially true.'
A
spokesman the state educational affairs minister in Saxony-Anhalt said:
'I am shocked. If this is true there can only be one way forward here:
zero tolerance!'
The WhatsApp exchanges have been handed over to police and prosecutors.

I think that large category of kids are passing through this stage of their life. I mean, stage where they get known with all this Nazi’s stuff. It’s very fascinatingly when you are teenager. I think it was the same back then when I was a kid, except now it could be forced and hyped by media. However, I don’t know how things are in Germany, maybe it’s whole different story. At least after I read reviews on Write my essay online, I understood it.
