He is an anti-Zionist, and therefore gets reflexively called anti-semitic. It is the conquering, colonizing Jews and Christians who he identifies as Islam's enemies. Which is not the same thing as "all Jews", or "all Jews and Christians".

From Matahir's speach:

<We also know that not all non-Muslims are against us. Some are well disposed towards us. Some even see our enemies as their enemies. Even among the Jews there are many who do not approve of what the Israelis are doing.>

Can you see what he is proposing, when he advocates doing what Saladin did with King Richard of England? He is advocating exactly the kind of practical compromise, that would allow peace for Israel. And, in that speech, he repeatedly criticized terrorism, as ineffectual and UnIslamic.
