Both Hitler and Stalin were total and all-powerful dictators. They imprisoned and killed all their suspected enemies. They blamed them for everything that was wrong.
Your question is why do dictators need to blame someone for these problems? Do you think they dare accept any blame on themselves or their governments?
is the answer because the result of world war one?
No.
Dictators in any place and any time seem to need scapegoats to shoulder the blame for anything that goes wrong.
Note that your question says "dictators" not just those specific dictators.
Why do you think dicators need to find scapegoats for their nations's ill?
