He is not a renegade, he is a Patriach of an Eastern church in communion with the Latin church
The Armenian Apostolic Church is not in communion with Rome. It's part of the Oriental Orthodox communion.

I more or less expect the opinions in Eastern Europe and the Middle East to be anti-Semitic.
It's not helpful to accuse everyone who opposes recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel of anti-antisemitism. Anti-antisemitism is hatred of the Jewish race, the statement provided in the OP does not sound antisemitic.

Not everyone who opposes recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is antisemitic. On the other hand, everyone who is antisemitic will oppose recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

I thought it was an Eastern Rite Patriarch that was quoted? are you sure it is an OO Patriarch?
According to Wikipedia, Aram I is an Armenian Apostolic Catholicos, which is apparently what they call their patriarchs or bishops. He's not the head one (that's Karekin II), but appears to be over a city or district. I'm guessing he's like the number two guy or somesuch.

The Armenian Apostolic Church is the national church of Armenia and is in the OO communion. The Armenian Catholic Church is the Eastern Rite version.

Are you also calling the Lutherans, Episcopalians, Catholics and Orthodox "pompous false religions"?
