Same thing I thought when I saw the headline.
It’s giving big Zohan vibes.

As horrifyingly racist and just not very good as it was, that movie is surprisingly wholesome and heartwarming at the end. Nothing brings Isreal and Palestine together than a mutual love of hummus.

It's perpetuating negative stereotypes, so yeah.
It's like saying "Well, James Baskett was the first Black man to receive an Oscar for Song of the South, so Uncle Remus can't be racist!"

The Palestinian and Israeli characters come together in the film to counter the paired threat of unbridled capitalism and white/American supremacy.
They defeat it with humus.
Fwiw.
