The source information on which your article is based is inaccurate
anti-Ukrainian propaganda.
The doll is manufactured in Taiwan, not Ukraine. They are not being
"stocked in supermarkets"; *one* was found in a speciality shop. The
saleswoman quoted in the article said nothing of the sort of things she
was attributed with having said in your story. The idea of a further
line of Nazi souvenirs was the imaginings of the original author of the
story uncovering the doll's existence in Ukraine, as in a horrific,
"what next?" scenario (http://www.dt.ua/1000/1550/62775/ - Dzerkalo
Tyzhdnia, in Ukrainian.)
In fact, this exact same Taiwanese doll is for sale in the UK
(http://www.modellersloft.co.uk/showitem.ihtml?
id=22831) and in America
(http://www.pzg.biz/figure_hitler.htm).
There is detailed information about how this story came to be twisted
into a slander against Ukraine, one posted by the Kharkiv Human Rights
Protection Group (http://www.khpg.org/en/index.php?id=1209570049) and a
more detailed analysis by the Ukrainian Archive
(http://www.ukar.ca/shevchenko/buzyna/hitler.html)
.
This "story" has already been retracted by the BBC, the Daily Telegraph
and most recently by The Philadelphia Trumpet
(http://thetrumpet.com/index.php?q=5109.3384.0.0)
