Anything can be claimed, but that would just be a display of ignorance. The inherent differences between these religions are that Judaism is more "bottom up" when Catholicism, and other Judaism offshoots are "top down". Judaism is "for the people by the people" while Catholicism and Islam by and large espouse cultural dominance.
Since one is either Jewish through matrilineal descent or by conversion, it just seems to me that one could similarily claim that all Catholics, for example, are a group somewhat like the Jews. No?
