    Hebrew.

    The languages are similar, but Hebrew is easier because: a) it was recently renewed, so it's easier for modern speakers. b) there aren't as many dialects as there are in Arabic. c) the writing system is easier.

    Of course, if you want to learn Arabic, go right ahead, as it is a beautiful language, but if you're merely asking which is easier, that'd be Hebrew.
