Ah, text file encoding problems!
What is the character encoding of the CSV file? Are the bytes in that
file indeed in the Windows-1255 encoding? Or are they perhaps in UTF-8?
It is important that the Import Encoding which you select match the
actual encoding of the file you are importing.
I hope this is helpful, and not too self-evident.
