I disagree that Nietzsche hated all races equally. For starters, he glorified the ancient Greeks, and even mused on the possibility that Socrate's legendary ugliness was due to the fact that he was not "pure" Greek.
OTOH his antisemitism switched back and forth. At one stage he described anti-Semitism to be as foolish as being anti-French, anti-Polish etc. Shortly afterwards he called for a ban on further immigration of Jews to Germany. He then goes on to describe the Jews as the strongest, toughest and purest of all races in Europe but calls for an end to "cross breeding" betwene Jews and Germans.
I'll also degree on your analysis of Nietzche and Nazism, because unlike the authoritarian Christians who subsumed their will into a Holy Book, the Nazi elite were acting entirely of their own violition.
