You need a line in your kickstart file for language support.  Here's a snippet
from the new Kickstart documentation:

langsupport -- Sets the language(s) to install on the system. The same language
codes used with lang can be used with langsupport.

    --default [1]

        Sets the default language to use for any language-specific aspect of the
installed system.

    An example to install English and French and use English as the default
language:

languagesupport --default en_US fr_FR


So, add a line like:
languagesupport --default en_US

and then the kickstart should proceed without questioning you.
