For example, the infantcide in genesis is because of the Pharaoh and also because the devil wanted to destroy the chance of there being someone rise up from amongst the hebrews to become the saviour of the world and therefore defeat Satan. Another example is the story of Noah. The flood caused massive damage and the loss of thousands of lives. However, these lives were of people who were half human and half angels. These angels are from the 1/3 of angels who followed Lucifer when he fell from heaven. Anyone can check this out for themselves of they cared to look. Thoroughly read the bible before you use examples to support your claim/s.
No, it wasn't the pharaoh. Perhaps he was being stubborn at first, but part of the way through god specifically said he would harden the Pharaoh's heart so he could continue the plagues. After that point, nothing is the Pharaoh's fault. He's being forced into the situation. The devil doesn't really come into it.
As for the hybrids, I'm not sure why hybrids would be considered any more evil than anything else, given they were part angel. Them being hybrids, and mentioning some vague evilness of them, doesn't really say anything to justify slaughtering them. Again we get into this problem of god not knowing any other solution to a problem besides killing, and killing doesn't even solve the problem. Given he has to continue to do it over and over, and there are still problems in the world.
He tells his people to invade cities, and kill everyone there, and spends the aftermath enjoying the smell of blood. He's a god of war, and blood. Not of love.
Take note that hes basically rewriting the Bible to make it more suitable for his moral sensibilities.
