Do you agree with Whoopi Goldberg that the Holocaust was "not about race"?

Whoopi Goldberg has been suspended from The View for a comment she made in which she suggested that the Holocaust was “not about race” but about “man’s inhumanity to man”.

Is this a controversy over whether Jews are considered a “race” or not? I know we have a number of people here who identify as Jewish, religiously or ethnically, so I’d be interested to hear from you.
