Islam has only been as hostile as it is to Jews today because of the creation of Israel and the ensuing wars in the region. In fairly recent history Muslim and Jews have collaborated, the Umayyad invasion of Spain a good example.

Older forms of both Paganism and Christianity were far more hostile to the Jews but in practice today they're accepting. And even with the Muslims only Palestine and Iran are really resisting Jewry as opposed to the Gulf countries.
