Issue One:
I prefer to install Linux distros in English then configure each user
for his own language. While installing Squeeze I do not have the choice
of a time zone for Israel, only US time zones. The installer mentions
that to display other time zones I must change language. This is absurd.

Issue Two:
When I go back and choose the Hebrew language, I _still_ do not get an
option for an Israeli time zone. The time zones available have switched
from seven or eight US time zones to (translated from Hebrew) "US",
"Mexico", "Saint Peter and Miklon", and "Canada".

Both issues are weird :-?

You might find useful these two posts:

Changes for Squeeze in Debian Installer

timezone in squeeze installer
http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2010/05/msg00001.html


What appears impossible(?) is to select 'english us' and then a timezone in Mexico. Or any combination of such. Once you select the former you are stuck with the latter.
