Re-thinking the name for Labneh in the West

This strained yoghurt dip we know as Labneh is Greek yoghurt for a long-standing tradition now in Europe and the U.S.
The American Term for Labneh is…
So it is in the UK also: This is a long-standing word war waiting to happen:
Granted it's Greek yoghurt on the Greek islands and peninsula but surely when referring to the Lebanese/ Arab version we can petition for "labneh" naming brand, especially since the Mid-Est staple is not quite the same thing as Greek Yoghurt.
"Greek Yogurt":
"In 2005, Kraft Foods decided to close its yogurt plant in South Edmeston, Chenango County. It shut down an 85-year-old dairy processing operation, threw 55 employees out of work and added a new chapter to the story of fading economic fortunes in Upstate New York.
Today, South Edmeston is the epicenter of the skyrocketing supermarket category of Greek yogurt. Since late 2007, the former Kraft plant about 60 miles southeast of Syracuse has been home to Chobani, the best-selling Greek yogurt in the United States."

Israeli Deputy Prime Minister: Flotilla Sabotage Thanks to IDF – by Richard Silverstein
Taking credit for the sabotage the flotilla campaign, and the IDF 'lies' go on:
"Well, Bogie Yaalon’s actual words quoted in Ynet (Hebrew) were: “Those problems the Flotilla’s having in realizing their plans didn’t just happen.

What if apple created a search engine?
Something to get the Geek's imagination juices flowing:

Ya Welcome Ya welcome Tahrir Newspaper
"And So Ibrahim Eissa and his original Dostor team of journalists are back again to business. Today was the first issue of their newspaper Tahrir Daily. Here is its twitter and Facebook accounts which publish its columns for the time being till the website starts operating. I wonder what is going to happen to the Original Dostor portal, I hope that Eissa keeps it because it became more than a website or a domain name he bought by his credit card."
