[Xfce-i18n] Hebrew team mess.

[Yaron Shahrabani]

Do me a favor,
While you do all the talking I'm the one who's really working here so set
your mode back to mute and let me work.
Nobody needs you, nobody supports you, no user has ever said the things
you're saying, you are hallucinating, please take your medications and
leave us all alone, we are fine without you, really.
