“And real excellent Arab hummus! And great Jewish falafel! And a free refill for every serving of hummus, whether you’re Arab, Jewish, Christian, Indian, etc.”
“Scared of Arabs? Scared of Jews?” the restaurant advertised in a Hebrew-language Facebook post. “By us we don’t have Arabs! But we also don’t have Jews… By us we’ve got human beings!
This post published on the October 13th, and the bar has already enjoyed fans and success.
Manager Kobi Tzafrir told the Times of Israel that by the post-lunch rush on Monday, Hummus Bar had already served several tables with both Arabs and Jews.
Tzafrir said: “If there’s anything that can bring together these peoples, it’s hummus.”
Will it help to bring tolerance and a bite of peace?
