There is a theory that Stalin was indeed assassinated in the end. At least, Lavrentiy Beria (who was not a Jew himself, but might as well have been) seems to have intentionally procrastinated in getting medical attention to Stalin after his stroke, and later also supposedly told Molotov that he "took him [Stalin] out." But that remains an unverified theory, and Beria's gambit for absolute power failed miserably. Khrushchev and Zhukov combined to remove Beria from all positions of power, and by the end of 1953, Beria was charged with 357 counts of rape and executed with a bullet in the forehead.

Stalin was a genius and successfully outsmarted literally everyone for as long as he was alive and in good health. Probably no other person in history succeeded in rising to such a high position from such a humble background. The man went from being the son of an impoverished Georgian cobbler to becoming a virtual god-emperor who dominated the greater part of Eurasia directly or indirectly. If Stalin didn't exist and someone wrote a fiction novel with the same plot as Stalin's life story, it would be lampooned as being too unrealistic. I think the story of Stalin is very important in the current times especially, because it shows what an intelligent and highly determined man can achieve. It also serves as a healthy antidote to the idea, which seems very common in "dissident right" circles nowadays, of viewing elites as some kind of demigods who simply possess far too much power for us mere mortals to cope with. But as the story of Stalin shows, it is perfectly possible for an ordinary man with the right combination of traits and circumstances to rise up the ranks, and butcher the very same elites who had worked with him and who thought that they were invincible.

In the modern world, where the common people are suffering so much from an arrogant and hostile elite class, I think many people would greatly welcome a new Stalin and a new series of purges.
