Muslims scare white people more than Jews, brown Muslims even more. Give them a beard and a kaftan and you watch Karen clutch her pearls. At least the Jewish people get Jon Stewart and Mel Brooks.
The vast majority of people dont see this as a vast complicated 70 year ongoing geopolitical hot potato, they just pick their side and defend it.
