It's debatable whether Stalin had any responsibility for the death of Sergei Kirov at all. Kirov was becoming more popular than Stalin was, but that alone would not explain Stalin having complicity in Kirov's murder. In addition, after Kirov's death, Stalin went on a murder spree himself, calling for the arrests and executions of many people he thought had any connection, no matter how remote, to the murderer.

Who was the worse Lenin or Stalin?

By far Joseph Stalin was worse than Lenin. Stalin sent millions of people to their unjustifiable deaths. Although Lenin was the leader of the soviet revolution he was never in power long enough to be responsible for the shear magnitude of human atrocities committed by Stalin. Lenin, however, was responsible for purging parts of some ethnic and government opposition groups. Stalin was one of Lenin's "enforcers" and would kill innocent people without cause, question, or concern. It was after Lenin's death when Stalin took over and had many high ranking military and revolutionary officer/officials executed. Also, he sent millions of innocent Soviets to Siberia as slaves and work them essentially to their deaths.

Is Joseph Stalin a nice guy?

No doubt was a brilliant leader in some aspects, Stalin industrialised Russia and turned them into a super power whose industrial capacity was second only to America. However in doing this he treated workers very harshly and has been accused of being responsible for a famine which killed millions. Under Stalin's regime more people were placed into labour camps than Hitler, and he even went as far as sending returning POW's to them. Overall Stalin's treatment of society was extremely repressive have also read that he also treated his family very harshly. To this day however many Russians love Stalin. (49% of Russians see his regime as a positive)

What did Joseph Stalin do to end nazism?

Stalin did many things to contribute to the war effort against the Nazis. His economic policies and military tactics were far better than those of the nazis. Soviet losses in WW2 were far, far higher than those of any other nation. Not only was Stalin instrumental in defeating the Germans, but he also pursued a policy of dominating postwar Eastern Europe. He replaced one tyrany with another. Having said that, the sacrifices made by the Soviet Union in WW2 were far greater than in any other theatre of the war.
