Islam is an ideology, just like Christianity.
Judaism is different and that's been documented before.
The attack wasn't justified or warranted, but it wasn't a racist attack and that's the key part you're struggling with.
Why don't people carry out the same attacks on the Western church's?
Probably due to better media suppression by the churches for starters.
Islam has unfortunately been twisted by those to justify their paedophilic urges, with the belief that against non Muslim girls it isn't a problem.
Same with the twisted beliefs that the rest of the world needs converting to Islam.
It still isn't a race though and you can copy /paste as much as you like but Islam has never been declared a race of people.
There is only one race of humans and all humans are part of it. I know it's difficult with the term racism still being used but the idea of distinct races is scientifically inaccurate and a carry over from the moral **** "Scientists" in the 1800s who decided to use a colour coded system of human hierarchy which also fitted in nicely with their antisemitism.
Ethnicity is more accurate but we often try to over-simplify it. Most of us in Britain will be a mix of ethnicities as we've had immigration for centuries
German, Dutch, Danish (Angles, Saxons and Jutes) , French, Norwegian, Spanish...
The same with African ethnicity, many ethnicities that we try to bunch together as a "race".
The Jews and Palestinians are closely related genetically , more so than Palestinian Muslims are to Muslims from Asia.
