Another nugget you may find interesting :

The gemara teaches ain Yisrael nigalin ela biteshuva. Then the gemara asks the obvious, what if they don’t?

It answers, that in that case Hashem will appoint a melech koshe khaman, and then we’ll do teshuva and be redeemed.

The Rebbe comments that the comparison to Haman instead of the many sonei Yisrael, is to teach us that just as Haman looked very scary but didn’t end up harming even one Jew, so too in our case, if Hashem will ever need to resort to such measures.
