The vilification of Jews and Muslims is one continuous historical process

Evidence

Anti-Semitism and Islamophobia are both unique and similar. A yin and a yang. They are analogous in that they are both projects of majority exclusion, religious stigmatization, and racialized scrutiny by right-wing ultranationalist politicians, organized neo-Nazi hate groups, and conservative media outlets. — Arsalan Iftikhar, Fear of a Muslim Planet_ Global…, 482 (#corroborates, via linked claim)

Second, both phenomena in the modern era have involved significant elements of racism, whether biological or cultural. In other words, both Jews and Muslims have been racialized by majority populations and have suffered significant discrimination and hostility as a result. For this reason, some organizations, such as the European Monitoring Centre for Racism and Xenophobia, have conducted studies that view the challenges of anti-Semitism and Islamophobia as part of the same continuum. — Green, Todd H, The Fear of Islam_ An Introduction to…, 100 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
