But let me say that a quick Google search returns quite a number of articles suggesting that Hitler and the Nazis were eager to incorporate some of Nietzsche's ideas into their own plans and thinking.
You may have the last word.
Let me put it this way: Hitler and the National Socialists incorporated Nietzsche in rather the same way that some crackpots in the Christian camp "incorporate" the Bible into their worldviews without bothering to responsibly read the Bible and really understand it. I'm pretty certain that Nietzsche would have hated Hitler's fucking guts.
And if I may ask a follow up:
How did the Nazis use Nietzsche for their own purposes - or what did they find in his writings that enabled them to justify their own actions?
