Ah. Our generic slur for a Briton is "limey". Is that used in Israel or is it an Americanism?
And despite being a Southerner, being called a Yank or Yankee doesn't offend me personally (I consider it kind of quaint, actually; like calling me a Colonial) but, yeah, you might want to be careful about using that term with others from my general geographical region.
Some people still bristle at it. They're stupid. :p
