Your post seems to be trying to normalize this behavior "because someone else does it too".
No its not just limited to Putin, and any history book will tell you this. Since we like quoting wikipedia:

I by no means want to justify such behaviour. I fully condemn it. I absolutely do not want tensions between Russia and the west and I would rather live in a world that has managed to leave cold wars behind, much like we left hot wars behind, or at least world wars.
In your list there are 7 assassinations between Stalin and Putin (1953-1999). Putin's murder count is definitely way higher than ones of his preceders
