Leave God out of this one. What is actually GOOD about your standard of goodness? I would argue that if you took a step back from your myopic perspective you'd see that all these people you think are evil and wicked and worthy of genocide in the right context care for their own the same way you do. Even scumbags love their own kids. Even bigots love their own race. If your religion says for you to be the same as a scumbag bigot who gets to think he's better than other people because the LORD of the universe draws His line separating good and evil in the middle of the deli aisle, what good is your religion?
All you are saying is that there are people who do evil and do goodness. You are right. As someone pointed out in another thread, even the Nazis went home and loved their families and fed their dog (excuse me for not quoting you whoever you are). I'm sure Hitler had someone he cared about as well.
However in some cases, you can observe that this is a wicked person who also does a good deed or two once in a while. And that is a good person who does a wicked deed once in a while. And then there are some that just straddle the line.
To me it seems like you are stereotyping me with Christian fundamentalists who look at everyone who is not a Christian fundamentalist as Satan. Some of your side-comments also suggest to me that you don't know much about Judaism, but that's a side issue.
I am observing that everything has its time and place and that includes love and hate. Hating doesn't mean violence. You believe that everyone should only love and this is the mandate of your god. I see no good coming out of loving Hitler. In fact, I see more violence coming out of it, when he takes the opportunity to shoot you in your back while you're giving him a hug.
I think your views on love are very extremist.
