Peergint, in one of your links, this statement is made:
"It is also explains why some Jewish Rabbis put this curse on those who read this passage: “May the spirits of those who attempt to calculate the final time [of Maschiach’s coming] expire” (Sanhedrin 97B, quoted in chapter 12 of Hilchos Melachim from the Mishneh Torah of Rambam)". There is no curse put on people who want to read Daniel 9. What is forbidden is trying to determine when moshiach is coming. This is clear from the quote itself.
The only reason I can think of that Christians perpetuate these myths about Jews is that they can't understand why Jews don't accept Jesus as the messiah. Therefore we have blinders (or is it scales?) on our eyes, and our rabbis prevent from reading scriptures that would reveal the truth. This is pure nonsense.
