My own response to his link:
We do take it for granted that the Jews would naturally "ally" or "align" themselves with Christians. Not true. Islam and Judaism do have a long historical past together.
And yes, it's hard to see what is legitimate and reactionary. We seem to be heading into a reactionary avenue when it comes to Muslims.
Here in Quebec, an intensely parochial society, it comes in the form of "reasonable accommodation." Does wearing a burqa really represent an onslaught on our ways? Of course not. We're a pluralist and tolerant society - at least we're supposed to be.
