Only one airline has Hebrew subtitles: El Al. El Al does not fly from Europe to the US. Hence, if a deaf person wants to stop in Europe (as I am doing for a week) before continuing on, he can not take El Al.

The analogy is exact: A Hebrew-speaker (or an Arab) can not understand a movie in English any more than a deaf person can.
