Another issue, it wasn't just Judas who was a Jew - they all were - Jesus and every apostle. How does this escape the learned men?

For some reason there is a tendency among both anti-Semitic chr*stians and liberal Jews to think of Judas Iscariot as the only Jewish apostle when according to chr*stianity they were all Jews.

There are even some who claim that this apostle was given the name "Judas" in order to personify and demonize the Jews. These people apparently don't know that another apostle had the exact same name and is one of the most popular saints: Jude the Obscure, the "patron saint of lost causes." Hey, I was Catholic for six years!

MSM's efforts to create divisions between observing/believing Jews and righteous Christians. Having us work together sincerely and for the good is not part of their agenda to be sure.
