Actually, Franklin speaks Arabic, and Bortnyk, despite all his flaws, is a pretty damn good tanker. Anonymous coward, mind your tongue when talking about your betters.

If that's the case, then he's the man (Franklin). Arabic is one of the toughest languages on the planet for a Westerner to learn--especially the reading and writing part. Let's not even talk about dialects... That's part of the reason they did this project in the first place, was because of a shortage of trained translators with a clearance to go through all this stuff, and they needed to shift those guys to current, actionable intel.

As for Bortnyk, anyone who's a tanker can't be too bad either.
