Re: [Cz-L] Are you Rumanian?

My parents were born in Czernowitz in 1913 and 1914 and always considered=
 themselves Austrian although they grew up in Rumania and lived there unti=
l 1950. I was born in Arad and left for Israel when I was 2 years old, li=
ved in Israel until 1957 and immigrated to US. When asked about my nation=
ality, I respond that I have dual citizenship Israeli and USA. "But you=
 were born in Rumania--aren't you Rumanian?" I answer--"If I was born in=
 a barn would I be a cow?"
