Well he will at least have to pretend to be a Jew to make it look like he fulfills the messianic prophecies (this will probably involve successful wars against Muslims) Remember, he is accepted by Israel as the Jewish messiah before he shows his true colors.
The Jews are on the lookout for a messiah. The antichrist will rebuild the temple cause peace everywhere all the while performing miracles. It'll be hard for anyone who isn't a Christian to not be deceived by what is about to happen.
I have no biblical basis for this at all and it's only speculation...so ipso facto this opinion is pretty much useless...but i wouldn't be surpised if the anticrhist is accepted as the Messiah for the Jews, the Mahdi for the Muslims.
Jesus said, "For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect."
So anyone not grounded in the truth of Jesus Christ will be deceived.
