How do you get "fierce warrior" out of Sabra in Hebrew? A "sabra" is someone born in Israel in Hebrew.

There used to be a brand of nylon tights called Sabra - made in Israel and very good quality. There was also a liqueur, also Israeli and also called Sabra, which was chocolate-and-orange and very good for adding to puddings ... not a drink for a fierce warrior, though.
