You know something, my dad is Lebanese Muslim (I'm agnostic) and I don't find it racist. If it was a film trying to make a serious statement about the situation in the Middle East it would be offensive but as a throwaway 80s body count action film. It's great fun! My dad likes it too! I remember him chuckling during the scene where Chuck's on the bike saying "He knows Beirut better than I do!"
