This is a character in one of his novels saying this. From wikijewdia:
"The main character is Simone Simonini, a man whom Eco claims he has tried to make into the most cynical and disagreeable character in all the history of literature." That says it all right there. Eco used a dislike of and disgust for jews as a character defect to make his character unlikeable.
Eco felt quite differently about the jews. He discusses the Protocols of Elders of Zion in his book of essays "Six Walks in the Fictional Woods". He was just another jew-lover, like all academics.
