My arguments just to much for you to handle so you chose the cheap way out?

Since Japan declared war on us we can bomb them into oblivion but since Russia only declared war on smaller defenselss neihbors we can do nothing about it?

Your problem is that you just don't want to recognize the evil of Stalin and the Soviet Union. What if the tables were reversed, Stalin had attaked the US and we joined up with Hitler to defeat Stalin.

At the end of the war if we had the bomb and Hitler did not, would it have been OK to demand that Hitler step down?

But wait, he was our alley and never declared war on us. It is OK that he exterminated a large portion of the population of Europe (just like Stalin) but he never attacked us, and of course bombing Germany to get him to step down would be a war crime, better to let him remain in power.
