The Soviets gave us a chance to help defeat Hitler in Europe..We also had a war to fight in the Pacific,...or don't you recall?

I do. America defeated Japan with the late Soviet help (Soviets crushed the Kwantung Army on the continent). And so Soviets defeated Germany with the American help (opening of the second front in the West and supplies).

The Soviest only moved against Japan when the war was already won. Then they tried to gobble up as much land as they could.
