It seemed to me that this writer, perhaps driven by some religious convictions, seems to ignore the fact that Modern Hebrew is mainly based on Russian colloquial expressions. This was the language of the people of my father's generation, those responsible for establishing Hebrew as daily spoken idiom, away from the synagogue. BTW, there is an intense debate going on this very issue on the b-hebrew@lists.ibiblio.org mailing list.
