Islam has made marriage to Jewish or Christian women lawful for Muslim men, for they are Ahl al-Kitab, that is, People of the Book, or people whose tradition is based upon a divinely revealed Scripture. Although they have distorted and altered it, they do possess a religion of divine origin, and hence Islam has made some exceptions in dealing with them.

I wouldn't suggest it. Not if you take your faith seriously. Jews believe that God's covenant descends thorough the line of Isaac. Muslims believe that God's covenant descends through the line of Ishmael; this is a MAJOR difference.
The lack of this agreement has serious consequences to faith. Both essentially are saying the other is wrong. If you take you faith seriously your marriage will not last.

it depends on where
if its in a democracy like the United States then yes. but I warn you its not easy. First intermarriage have a higher than average divorce rate. Second they will likely be outcast by both families. Third their is a conflict of what religion the kids will be raised in.
in the end it is not advisable

Qur'an explicitly prohibits marriage between a Muslim woman and a non-Muslim man. Other way around is okay. I know of no such strictures in Judaism.

You can marry anybody you want,now with the religion part it may or will cause a disunity in the family, so i would tell you make sure you are evenly yoked,that means you believe in the same God!

Sure they would. Folks in Hollywood (and everywhere else...) get married all the time... hehe.

Not in this life my friend - the arrangement would be far too political.

In this country as long as one is male and one is female, yeah. I don't know about elsewhere.
