That's actually a very good question. Why did he not destroy Hitler--and massacre every single person in Germany--in retaliation for attempting to annihilate his chosen people, when that is precisely the crime for which he commanded the massacre of every Amalekite, only about a billion times worse?

If your response is "that happened after Christ died for our sins", why did he not kill Hitler's distant ancestor B.C. (or, given God's tendencies, massacre everybody within a hundred mile radius of wherever Hitler's B.C. ancestor happened to live) with the justification that it would prevent one of the world's most heinous evils?
It's not justice. It's a murderous tyrant's whimsy.
