Throughout history the Jewish people have considered their race and religion to be intertwined. Only in the more recent centuries have people of non-Jewish descent even entered the Jewish faith. Technically "Jew" is a race, read up about it. And this is racism, but i don't think it would bother me. The terms whitey, honkey, and cracker don't bother me at all. I think the whole thing of getting pissed off about racist remarks is dumb. I've been called much worse things than a slang term meaning "white", but hey, [censored] happens. Move on.
