Leader's name, enemy's name

I learnt a big lesson form my last month's visit to the United States:

A country whose leader's name (say, King Abdollah in Jordan) you can't pronounce loud in public is quite similar to one where you can't say the name of it's biggest enemy (say Osama Bin Laden in the U.S.) loud in public.
