Silly, silly. The point is there's no such real thing as race; the only qualification for being one is that racist people identify you as one (by any set of characteristics: color, creed, or piano-playing included) in order to persecute you.

Other than that, by any meatheaded standard typically used to identify race (ie, skin color, phrenology, origin, language, creed, customs, geographical concentration, and genetic traits,) both Jews and Muslims are distinct races - even distinct from each other. To not think so is, in fact, racist against Negroes.
