Joseph Stalin did not intentionally target Jews, but he did amass quite a large amount of killings. Stalin killed over 20 million people in his purges and five-year plans.

Stalin was probably not out to eliminate the Jews as a race of people the way Hitler wanted to do. But Stalin still wanted to get rid of as many Jews as possible and tried his best to do so..

Who had political power after Lenin?

Political power did not go to Joseph Stalin right after Lenin died. The government was run by a triumvirate of Joseph Stalin, Grigory Zinoviev and Lev Kamenev for a number of years. Stalin managed to get rid of Zinoviev and Kamenev and took sole power in 1928. He did not become the dictator that he is remembered as until 1932, because the Politburo of the Central Committee of the Communist Party still had enough old Bolsheviks on it who could have voted Stalin out and replaced him. Stalin got rid of them too leaving mostly his own appointees and others loyal to him on the Politburo and Central Committee. He also then had full control of the OGPU, the secret police, who could eliminate anyone at anytime as Stalin desired with no objections from the Party.
