The issue with that mindset, is that these examples you reference, weren't decided by Russians who were killed in WWII. Therefore the concept that we can dismiss the loss of life in one instance due to the future actions of others seems a little futile if you don't mind me saying.

Had the exact same thought. The men and women who lost their lives in WWII clearly weren't the ones who decided to back the communist agenda later on.
