EK will fly an Israeli. They will even fly them on a Dubai-bound flight so long as they are connecting... So an Israeli could fly, for instance, CDG-DXB-HKG. They still can't enter Dubai as the UAE doesn't recognize Israel, but that doesn't preclude EK's computers from "reading" the Israeli passport...
