My apologies. My mistake. I thought that the Muslims of the middle east, which is what we are talking about, met the definition of an "ethnic group"

"An ethnic group or ethnicity is a socially defined category of people who identify with each other based on common ancestral, social, cultural or national experience.[1][2] Membership of an ethnic group tends to be defined by a shared cultural heritage, ancestry, origin myth, history,homeland, language and/or dialect and sometimes ideology, manifests itself through symbolic systems such as religion, mythology and ritual,cuisine, dressing style, physical appearance, etc."

Apparently I was mistaken.
