Greetings,
I thought it would just interest you to know about a
debate that's started regarding the translation of KDE
into Arabic that recently entered the KDE CVS.
To sum it up, the string "Israel" which is used in the
country list in the KDE Control Center was translated
into Arabic "falastin almuhtala", or "occupied Palestine".
I complained to the KDE i18n maintainer, and you can
see the threads of the discussion at:

and at:

Regards.
