It looks like you&#x27;re not quite as naive as you&#x27;d sounded at first...<p>Remember, Stalin didn&#x27;t go in for executions; he preferred slave labor. Deaths in the GULAG -- which could be as high as in the non-death-camp Nazi concentration camps, or higher -- should be counted as well as executions. (Remember how part of Stalin&#x27;s price for peace with Japan was 300,000 Japanese slaves, none of whom ever returned to Japan after the war.)<p>Also, some deaths in the war should be attributed to Stalin -- at the very least, deaths in the punishment brigades. If you force someone to march through a minefield, and he hits a mine and dies, it&#x27;s your fault.
