Yeah, it might be offensive to use it in the Western context when there are Palestinians lurking.

Don't use "Hag" either in the western sence, as biblically it represents Hagar, Egyptian princess and the mother of Ismael, the first born son of Abraham. God established his covenant with Ismael and Ismael's decendants to be the kings of kings (Philistines and Arabs in general) for all times until judgement day. No bias in our reference books, eh. Care to look these words up in a dictionary?
