Your system default is probably whatever 8bit encoding Windows uses
for Hebrew (I suspect not the ISO one). It is not UTF-8 or UTF-16.

Emacs doesn't use UNICODE_TEXT format. Maybe it should, but we have
to detect if it is available somehow, since blindly using it will
cause other apps to see nothing on the clipboard. We also need to
know whether CJK tables are loaded in East Asian locales, or Emacs'
conversion to UTF-16 will produce garbage, and we'll end up with worse
results than using the system default encoding for most East Asian users.
