...so instead of 29 million people suffering under the most autocratic dicatorship in the world today we could have had 60 million people suffering. Gee, that sure makes a lot of sense. 

Im sure the 20 million Soviet citizens who died during WWII due to their own government and the 10 million killed in the purges of the 1930s are glad we didn't intervene, too.
