Most likely not. Rudyard Kipling used a swastika on the first editions of his books, but this was before the Nazi party adopted the swastika. He used the swastika because it was the symbol of good luck. Before the Nazi party came to power he had the engraver remove it from the printing block. He did not want it to seem like he was supporting them. Hence he was probably not antisemitic or a Nazi sympathizer.

There have been allegations and controversial statements made about Roald Dahl which suggest he may have held anti-semitic views. Some of his writings and comments have been interpreted by some as problematic in this regard. However, it is ultimately up to individuals to research, interpret, and form their own conclusions about his views on this topic.
