Otherwise you're saying we just make it up ourselves based purely on our own standards and Nazi morality is equally just as good. If we all had those moral standards then those are the moral standards we wouldn't be behaving immorally.
On one hand, the Nazi's would disagree. They saw their morality as god's morality. And they do have a point - their morality was pretty similar to your god's morality.
On the other hand, we do get to say what is and what isn't moral. Every morality is made up by humans based on their own standards, but that does not mean that they are all equally good.

It would've failed because a war-focused, tyrannical and oppressive regime without sufficient economic infrastructure is bound to be plagued by revolutions and ultimately collapse. Your god has nothing to do with it.

God does fight against it but he does it through people who adhere to him. That's the way it works he can't do anything directly as he isn't physically present but immanent within creation as spirit as well as being utterly transcendent beyond it and sustaining it all.
Blah, blah, blah.....
