59. I don't think you could be more wrong.

"Мы вас похороним!" (My vas pokhoronim!) uses the verb for "to bury", but the context is the following:

"About the capitalist states, it doesn't depend on you whether we (Soviet Union) exist. If you don't like us, don't accept our invitations, and don't invite us to come to see you. Whether you like it our not, history is on our side. We will bury you."

And, by the way, that quotation was often erroneously combined with his shoe-banging incident at the U.N. , but there is no evidence that he said anything of the sort at that time. The statement was made on a separate occasion.
