 Hi,

 The problem: Hebrew pages come out blank in IE 11 when using Twenty Twelve
 and up basic WP themes.

 This is a known issue: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23438319/using-
 import-for-google-fonts-is-not-working-on-internet-explorer

 It's an issue in WP since this font came into use around  version 3.0 and
 the upgrade of themes 2012 and 2013. In my team we have bypassed it with
 child themes. I thought I should report it after attending contributors
 day in WCEU2014.

 Proposed solution: use for for default font in WP themes any other font
 that has local versions for any language.

 Best
