Well, that's good thinking.
Not sure the East Germans or Poles or Hungarians, etc. would have thanked us at the time -- or even in retrospect, with perfect knowledge of their possible alternate future.
Oh -- you mean "wherever we think Stalin is" (i.e. drop it on Russia) -- pretty sure the average Russian would not have thanked us at the time -- or even in retrospect.
