All Romanians I speak to think this, but I haven't asked many

SHARE
I asked the bank teller, a women in her fifties, who do you want to win the war, America or Iran? Iran she answered unhesitatingly. "America makes wars all over the world and doesn't care for anybody." 

I don't think she is a particularly good teller but as a political analyst I can't fault her.


At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. (Matthew 11:25)


He might have added unto bank tellers and cab drivers.

  1. America has done awful things on the world stage, but this bank teller would probably have a hard time living day-to-day in Iran.

    1. Well she'd miss her family and friends and have to learn the language.

  2. Spoken Persian would be fairly easy for a Romanian but the alphabet is hair-raising!
