Ria, the situation you're describing is completely different. You're describing an area where people have to cross language barriers on a daily basis. It's a totally different case when you live in an environment where the nearest foreign country may be hundreds of miles away and 99% of what you do is in one language. To expect that people will know a language that they may never use outside of that context is simply unreasonable.
Similarly, the motives (even if no ill will is intended) are completely different. I'm willing to bet that the deck in SteveP's example could have been constucted from English cards, whereas as you have stated you have no local language alternative.
