It wasn't boring though. The cinematography and music made it work. That was the point the OP was making.
It has the whole "Do you feel lucky, punk" (paraphrased) monologue, which is way better.
Lots of Jewish people in the USA have the names Brody or Brodie. It's a fact. Whether they were born with it or changed it to sound less Jewish I have no idea. There is a city in Eastern Europe with the name Brody, as I've pointed out. Also, it does happen that two identical names come from two different cultures. Bakshi is usually Indian, but Ralph Bakshi was not Indian. Lee can be Chinese or English. Maybe kind of like Davis, Cooper, or Gordon which originally weren't "Jewish names", but became so when Jews came to America and changed their names for various reasons. I assume the name Stone was changed from Stein to sound more "Anglo", much like Schwartz is often changed to Black, and Weiss to White.
Anyway, what does Israel, Palestine or Gaza have to do with the film Jaws, a movie about a shark made in the 70s?

Brody can also be a Jewish name. There is a town in present day Ukraine (once a part of Poland) called Brody. Many Americans with the name Brody (or Brodie) are of Ukrainian/Polish Jewish descent. Brody may also be an Irish name, however, Lorraine Gary (maiden name Gottried) and Roy Scheider were both played by Jewish actors. Doesn't mean they are Jewish in the film necessarily, but doesn't disprove it, either.
It started in 2014 when Russia invaded Crimea and the Donbass.
It's one of Hammer's very best movies.
It .mostly worked for Kurosawa and Mifune.
It turns out, the Antichrist's mother was a hamster and his father smelled of elderberry.
Pickle Trickle strikes again!
