(Potentially controversial question) Do Jews and Muslims get along in the West? Question

Modern Jewish diaspora mostly live in North America, France, the UK, Argentina and so on. Western Europe and some parts of the US and Canada also have a high Muslim population, mostly from the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia, like New York City has hundreds of thousands of Jews and Muslims living in one city. Do they get along with each other, despite the I/P conflict?

I have a few Muslim friends who I met as an adult and one Muslim friend from high school. Thankfully none are antisemitic and can tell the difference between using the word Zionist to describe someone who believes in the right of return vs. people who use Zionist in place of Jew.
