Flash forward to 2006 and a drunk Mel Gibson... And things seemed to look a little different.
Although I will say I doubt it is the case with this movie, I could see how the broad generalizations and charactures might be taken that way. I guess it's supposed to be based on a graphic novel but I could see how certain people or groups might feel that way.
Personally I think a lot of people are too senstive and of course, lots of media outlets and power brokers will turn anything into a crusade for their case.
But see the argument. Maybe not agree with it, but see it.

Mel Gibson was retelling a story that has been written and told for a very very long time. If Jews have a problem with it, tough crap.
