I also cannot recall hearing him attack Judaism - at least not directly. His general anti-religious attacks are off-putting.

The broad brush religious attacks are unhelpful. The right is anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim. Some on the left simply are simply anti-religion. We need to learn to simply respect each other. Mocking religion - any religion - is illiberal.
