I had to hard reset my phone and I'm out of the country for  some time. Is there any way to get WhatsApp working with my US number (which is temporarily deactivated) from Israel?
Can you get a voicemail? If yes just put in your American number and it will send a voicemail to your American number with the code and just listen to your messages and you'll get it.

I just downloaded WhatsApp and typed in my phone number and it asked if I want to restore old messages. After I restored them it BH just went on back to normal! Very strange.

Nope not strange at all you had an SD card correct? Whatsapp backed up your chats every day at 4 AM, if you register again with the same number it does not need another verification. It also restores the chats that were there from before.
