I think what they meant was german nationalists not actually the nazi party. Its like how people call american nationalists nazis even though they arent the same.
Ottomans were on an allience with Germany in ww1 and collectively were on board with the nazi uprising for ww2.
No, the Ottoman Empire was not supporting Nazis, and your far fetched attempt at making that claim is outrageous. During the reign of Hitler, Turkey was under secular anti-Islam (very much not Ottoman) rule. Quit your bullshit. In fact, arguably, the Ottoman Empire has historically provided a safe haven for the jews during their persecution.
The establishment of Israel with the help of the Brits is the repayment for that.
