CAMBRIDGE — The president of the Islamic Society of North America warned last night that American Jews who ally with right-wing Christians to oppose Muslim organizations are pursuing a high-risk strategy that could backfire.
Speaking at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, at an event sponsored by the school and four Muslim student organizations, Ingrid Mattson, a Canadian-born convert from Roman Catholicism who became the Islamic society’s first woman president last year, said that many American Jews have an existential fear that Muslims are anti-Israel.
Such fear leads Jews to ally with Christian fundamentalists who are supportive of Israel and critical of Islam, she said.
“Right-wing Christians are very risky allies for American Jews,” Mattson said, “because they [the Christians] are really anti-Semitic. They do not like Jews” and enter into the alliance on the basis of fundamentalist beliefs that it would be desirable for all Jews to return to Israel. She suggested that fundamentalist Christians might turn against Jews or that there could be backlash from ordinary Americans against Jewish and fundamentalist Christian supporters of Israel.

Gee, I wonder why the Jews would think that Muslims are anti-Israel. I guess it never occurred to her that it's because they are.

No true christian can be anti-semitic. Some people lie so smoothly.
