You are assuming that Muslims are one monolithic entity, just as Burgundy did. And you're wrong. There are a wide range of opinions within that community. If I said southerners were racists, would that be accurate just be some of them are? .
See the trouble with assuming people's affiliations by looking at just their ethnicity/background? Quite problematic. There are a great many Arabs/Muslims who are quite fond of Jews, and many who support Israel. Does that make them not Muslim or Arab? I don't think so. There is a huge logical fallacy incurred when you point at someone and say that because you are this, you must believe that.
I'm not assuming anything. I was making a harmless generalization based on the fact that the majority of Muslims are anti semetic...just as anyone would make the generalization that blacks vote Democrat. You are speaking in behalf of the minority. Considering the overt hatred of Irael that comes from Iran, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and nearly every Arab state, how can you be so naive to think otherwise?
Back when I lived in Saudi Arabia, you couldn't buy a Coke or a Ford product because these companies had manufacturing plants in Israel...the hate runs deep, dont kid yourself.
Quotes for you to digest..

“They succeeded in gaining control in most of the [world’s] most powerful states, and they — a tiny community — became a world power. But 1.3 billion Muslims must not be defeated by a few million Jews. A way must be found....The Europeans killed six million Jews out of 12 million, but today the Jews are in control of the world via their proxies. They lead others to fight and die for them....If we are weak, no one will support us. The Israelis respect only the strong, and we must therefore all unite.”

“The Prophet said: the Jews will hide behind the rock and tree, and the rock and tree will say: oh servant of Allah, oh Muslim this is a Jew behind me, come and kill him! Why is there this malice? Because there are none who love the Jews on the face of the earth: not man, not rock, and not tree; everything hates them. They destroy everything, they destroy the trees and destroy the houses. Everything wants vengeance on the Jews, on these pigs on the face of the earth, and the day of our victory, Allah willing, will come.”

“Their famous book, the existence of which is denied by the reasonable people among them, the so called Protocols of the Elders of Zion - but we call it the Protocols of the Idiots of Zion... In this book, the Jews included their plan to besiege the whole world by land, by air, by sea, by ideology, by economy, and by the media, as is happening today, my brothers in the nation of the Prophet Muhammad. The Jews today are weaving their spider webs in order to encircle our nation like a bracelet encircles the wrist, and in order to spread corruption throughout the world. ”

“The loathsome occupation in Palestine - its land and its holy places - by these new Mongols and what they are perpetrating upon this holy, blessed and pure land - killing, assassination, destruction, confiscation, Judaization, harassment and splitting the homeland - are clear proof of [unintelligible word - Ed.] hostility, of incomparable racism, and of Nazism of the 20th century. The Jews, the enemies of Allah and of His Messenger, the enemies of Allah and of His Messenger! Enemies of humanity in general, and of Palestinians in particular...”
