nitpick: Christians aren't considered kafir. Kafir are atheists. Christians and Jews are still people of the book. ETA additional nitpick: Dan Savage is misogynistic, biphobic, transphobic trash and I hate him being used as any sort of voice for the LGBT community when he really only represents the G community.

Good question that I don't know the answer to 100%. Dhimmi status came from Muslim caliphates which I think were united under a single belief until the schism over legitimate caliphates leading to the Sunni-Shia split. Almost certainly not for Wahabi. Alawites are a subset of Shia with some Christian beliefs included (tripartate god) but I don't know where they stand on Jews (likely negative because they're Syria based)
