#1 Actually, I am in favor of this: the more natives we have knowing arabic, the less they can hide behind the language.

Yassir Arafat was an expert at saying one thing in English, and another in Arabic.

Also, the soddies DON'T WANT an ambassador that speaks Arabic, so anything that remotely pisses them off, like understading arabic, is a winner with me.

#2 'Cept that most of the teachers of Arabic in the West are sponsored and affiliated in some way by the Soddies.
