Even if it were, Islam is not a race. Islam is made up of so many different races, just characterizing criticisms of its doctrines as racist is in itself racist because it equates Muslims with Arabs.

The real criticism here is religious bigotry which depending on the content of the cartoons may be a valid criticism. However, criticism is really as far as you can take it.
