    It seems like adwords Support don't moderate Ads very good.

    Someone created an AD in arabic and set up to show it for visitors from every country.

    It should be the case. The advertiser has not narrowed down the scope of his/her audience and thinks globally.

    If you select your ad to show for all countries search results, yes.
