One third of gods angels fell out because of lucifer, the bible says, so I was wondering why God didnt stop it when it started.
God could have responded by destroying Lucifer but
it would not have answered the challenge.
If you were challenged to a horse race, you could win by shooting the
other horse but would that prove which horse was the fastest?

God is faster than Lucifer?
(Ezekiel 38:4) I will turn you around and put hooks in your jaws and bring you out with all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed in splendor, a vast assembly with large shields and bucklers, all of them wielding swords;
(Ezekiel 38:22, 23) I will bring my judgment against him with pestilence and bloodshed; and I will rain down a torrential downpour and hailstones and fire and sulfur on him and on his troops and on the many peoples with him. 23 And I will certainly magnify myself and sanctify myself and make myself known before the eyes of many nations; and they will have to know that I am Jehovah.’
Lucifer will certainly find that his challenge was a big mistake.

You want God to remove choices you'd make if you were so incline from being able to make them?
What are you asking for?

Jehovah could have wiped out all involved but what would it have proved?
God showed His wisdom by letting the challenge play out.
A look at the world conditions shows that He was right.

Shame Jehovah didn't apply this logic when it came to the flood.

(Genesis 6:5, 6) Consequently, Jehovah saw that man’s wickedness was great on the earth and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only bad all the time. 6 Jehovah regretted that he had made men on the earth, and his heart was saddened.
(Genesis 6:11, 12) But the earth had become ruined in the sight of the true God, and the earth was filled with violence. 12 Yes, God looked upon the earth, and it was ruined; all flesh had ruined its way on the earth.
Does that sound like today's conditions?
(Genesis 6:8) But Noah found favor in the eyes of Jehovah.
