If joe stalin killed mor people than hitler why didn't anybody stop him?

like he's just as worse, if not more. why didn't the u.s. go over there and save the people, like we did in germany? we went to war with germany but not the soviet union. why?If joe stalin killed mor people than hitler why didn't anybody stop him?
i can't give you a clear answer about that but i guess during the times Stalin killed millions of lives, other countries have internal conflicts. besides, US is on a numerous wars that time particularly the Vietnam war and the Korean War. Stalin is a dictator and no democracy is on the soviet union during those times so even if soviets can't stop him. he was only stopped when he passed away.





Good Luck!If joe stalin killed mor people than hitler why didn't anybody stop him?
I'm not too sure on this...maybe the U. S thought the Nazis were a bigger threat than the communists. ( I believe Stalin gave communism a really bad name). But the reason why Stalin is usually more hidden than Hitler is probably because he was not racist or discriminant to the people he murdered. He just killed anybody who got in his way.
The US was totally isolationistic during the purges of the late 20s and 30s while the bloodbath was going on in the USSR. Not only were we going thru the Great Depression, the Soviets weren't taking over countries the way the Hitlerites were. Because Hitler was invading and taking over her neighbors and most of continental Europe, they were seen as the bad guys of the time. For these reasons, we were allied to the greatest butcher in the 20th Century....





The only reason we got involved in WWII in the first place was because of a direct attack upon our soil which was followed soon after by the German declaration of war. Until then, we were pursuing a very isolationist policy. The Lend Lease Act and assistance given by FDR was not supported by the majority of Americans at the time.
You ask a complicated question.





After Pearl Harbor, the US declared war against Japan, not Germany. A few days later, Germany declared war on the US, and then the US declared war on Germany. The US went to war in 1941 to protect itself and it's economic interests, not to save the Jews.





During the late 1930s when it became apparent that the Nazis intended to do more than just discriminate against the Jews, many Jews tried to leave Germany. The US and UK denied travel visas to most. The US turned back an entire shipload of Jewish refugees in 1938. This is not as a callous as it seems. The Great Depression was (depending on your perspective) still going on or just ending. No country wanted to accept thousands of immigrants who would compete for already scare jobs and be a drain on the social resources. The was also an accepted attitude of racism. Separate but Equal was a reality in most countries when talking about ethnic minorities (black, Jew, Asian, Muslim, etc). When the US got involved in Europe, it wasn't to protect the lives of anybody (except possible Americans).





Many of the millions who died under Stalin's reign died during the 1930's and 40s. At the time, no country had the ability or will to do anything about it. Western forces had tried to intervene in the Russian/Soviet Civil war in the 1920's and failed miserably. Most industrialized nations were focused on internal issues caused by the Great Depression.





Post WWII, the US decided it had more imporant issues than defeating Stalin. It decided that is was more important to contain Communism and rebuild Europe than it was to try and intervene in Soviet internal affairs.





It is doubtful that the US had the resources to do anything even if it had the political will and the support of the people. The Red Army was massive and was a match for all the entire American Army in Europe. By 1945, the US economy was stretched pretty thin. Too many more years of warfare might have bankrupted the Government and dramatically impacted the availability of consumer goods - two things that would lead to inflation and recession. The risk of war with the Soviet was deemed greater than the importance of 'spreading democracy' or human rights.





By the time of the Hungarian Revolt of 1956, the US military was in no position to try and face the Soviet in open military conflict. The post WWII demobilization of the Army, the failure to achieve a decisive victory in Korea, and the public and European resistance to the Korean War made winning a war with the USSR virtually impossible.





While this is not a complete answer by far it is the basics.
At the time we didn't know much or anything about concentration camps in Europe. We discovered them shortly after the war. Also, why don't you go and try to over throw a dictator? Yeah, hard isn't it. No one could just go in and o ver throw him, they would have to have lots of people ready to fight.
Stalin was ';ironically'; smarter than Hitler. He killed without invading foreign countries. Hitler did just that. And countries don't like to intervene into other countries' affairs.
%26gt;why didn't the u.s. go over there and save the people, like we did in germany?





Your question is based on false premises. The US did not/could not win the war alone and unaided, the contribution of the other Allies, especially the Soviet Union itself, was required. And WWII was not a war to “save the people”. Hitler is supposed to have assumed that Britain might be an ally against the Soviet Union.
because the ussr was our ally during world war 2. we dont care about human rights if it benefits us.
They killed all the Russians that tried to overthrow them or disagreed with them. We tried to stay out of it all anyway. We only went to Germany after Japan started killing our people. Stalin had already done his worst by then.
Germany was trying to take over the world, that is why America went to war with Germany.





Josef Stalin killed his own people. anybody who didn't do as they were told, or had a different political belief so they were killed. the Americans couldn't just invade a country to save the people, and if they did, where are they going to go?
The US went to war with Germany because they declared war on us. As Germay was also at war with the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union never declared war on us, it's not hard to figure out why we went to war against Hitler's Germany but not Stalin's Soviet Union.


Also, the reason that Hitler didn't kill far more people than Stalin isn't that he was less evil than Stalin, it's that Hitler WAS stopped. Had he succeeded his death toll would have been in the hundreds of millions. If his ultimate death toll was lower than Stalin's it was a result of his being less intelligent, not less evil.


Finally, you may want to look more closely at who stopped Hitler. It wasn't the US alone. About 80% of Germany's military casualties in World War II were suffered while fighting against the Soviets.
Well, I guess we just didn't want to start world war 3. Hitler was a bad man and we got lucky and he killed himself. =D


I'm not sure why we didnt take action but, our world isn't like it used to be..





=D Happy Friday =D
It's the worse of two evils.





Stalin killed more people but he killed his OWN people of russia.





Hitler killed less people but he killed everyone BUT his own people.
No one stopped Hitler from killing millions either. The extent of Stalin's crimes weren't well known at the time and the number of his victims are still debated today.





His crimes took different forms at different times and weren't all easily linked back to him. Take for example, the Ukranian famine. Was it obvious that the soviet government was purposely diverting aid from Ukraine?





You could also argue that Stalin had apologists in the U.S. and Europe that wanted to see the communist experiment succeed and didn't want to believe these crimes.





in response to ';we were busy in vietnam and Korea'; : No. Stalin's purges, resettlements, and happened well before that.





in response to ';They were our allies in WWII'; Most of Stalin's crimes were before WWII.
Hitler declared war on USA, Stalin did not. It would have been smarter for Hitler to just leave Japan =p
