Why didn’t he save them from it?Did you ever consider: "free will?" If you stare at Calvinism long enough you have questions like yours and even, eventually, "Why didn't God just create heaven, put the saved there and dispense with the whole "life" thing altogether. We're just acting in a play here anyway."

Herod slaughtered a whole bunch of them trying to get to Christ. The angel of the Lord killed all the first born of Egypt. Pharoah slaughtered Jewish babies. Is that all "God's fault?" Surely He knew about it before hand.
The beatitudes deal with those in the kingdom, the rest are out of luck
