It's obvious I'm in the lion's den on this subject, like my Hebrew namesake.
This is something I've noticed for many years. Americans worry about Israel

(...) Markhaban, Ahalan (wasahalan), hi, what's up :-) (My knowledge of Arabic consists of, umm, "Markhaban ya talamiz, Ana Mualima Ismi Salma", and, well, I forget the rest... since I left .il without taking high-school Arabic.
