Attributed originally to Lenin, but popularised by Uncle Joe. Stalin shows his comic side in a rare moment of Soviet irony: When we hang the capitalists they will sell us the rope we use. A Russian friend has emailed in with an example from his school days: BP selling rigs and heavy equipment to develop Siberian oil-fields, only to be pushed out of the Russian joint venture as it nears bearing fruit. Hanging someone with their own rope indeed.
