Font changed to Arabic :(

I booted up my computer today and everything but terminal font is in arabic. I cannot change it back to English. 'system-config-language' displays English (USA) as the only language available(Im using gnome).

'locale' yields:
LANG=ar_IN.utf8
LC_CTYPE="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_TIME="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_COLLATE="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_MONETARY="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_PAPER="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_NAME="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="ar_IN.utf8"
LC_ALL=

I tried to change it to english with the following command:
export LANG="en_US.UTF-8"

After that command locale says everything is set to en_US.utf-8, but on reboot nothing is changed.

My kernel config is:

title Fedora (2.6.40.4-5.fc15.x86_64)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.x86_64 ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_lib32-lv_root rd_LUKS_UUID=luks-bbe952f2-fa5b-485e-aea2-a0834799fed4 rd_LVM_LV=vg_lib32/lv_root rd_LVM_LV=vg_lib32/lv_swap rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYTABLE=us rhgb quiet nouveau.modeset=0 rdblacklist=nouveau
initrd /initramfs-2.6.40.4-5.fc15.x86_64.img

Any help is appreciated
