Salam, Fribidi is good enough, there's no need to reinvent the wheel, it would be a disservice to yourself and it would certainly not bother anyone else but those who would have to code it again. The good news is: it is LGPL, so who cares about what someone who contributed a couple of lines of code to it might say? Seriously, you should have just laughed at his suggestion. I doubt that many Arabs would feel bound by any limitations Israelis could try to put in OSS licenses about them, and vice-versa (do you see an Algerian in a court in Haifa against someone who violated his prohibition to use his OSS by an Israeli, or symmetrically, an Israeli in Khartoum sueing an Arab over an OSS license violation?:):)) Yallah, just ignore that, it's unnecesary noise.
