yeah i know but what is far more amusing is that sabra the arabic for patient etc also refers to the prickly pear cactus introduced to Palestine in the 1800's I am guessing something like that, that the Israelis adopted it for a locally born Israeli in reference to the tough cacti, non-native and invasive even though cultivated by Palestinians, i think sabra in the comic is a girl i am getting confused with captain israel which was equally woeful.
