        I think the word you are looking for is ignorant, and this is how most of the world views america but there even to ignorant to realise that.

          however, chances are an arabic person wouldnt understand what they say.

          I am Chinese and only 10% of the Chinese voice over makes sense, although grammarly way off.
          Hehe, I agree. And some of the voices have a Taiwanese or Cantonese accent in their Mandarin.

                      However...the #1 reason to keep the foreign voices is when you are standing in an alley as MEC/China and you hear: "get first aid here!, or ammo here!"...you know there is an enemy right around the corner.

                      If you use all English dialogue, then you will never know if it is a friendly or enemy around that corner.

                        I want examples of these mistakes. It'd be cool to actually know how EA messed up 3 of the most popular languages on Earth.

                        For example, "Jerry's busten hymen inside Jane Long" translates to a very poor "UAV deploying in your area", but would you know what it ment if all the context clues were taken out? If walking down Allah-u-Ahkbar street in Afganistan and someone said "Jerry's busten hymen inside Jane Long" would you be like "UAV in your general proximity arriving? WTFz0rz?!?" or would it actually translate well enough? I guess I'm asking for literal translations compared to what SHOULD have been said.

                                They use Common arabic. But it's translated litteraly from the english commands. It mean the same thing.

                                example:

                                Enemy plane spotted
                                Tayar al fauwkena hawel

                                Tayar: Plane
                                Hawel: Over
                                Fauwkena: (not the rigth spelling but) spotted or I see a..
