The killers were Arabs of the Christian faith. "Arab" is not a religion, but actually more of a linguistic and cultural group. It is certainly not a race as there are blond, blue-eyed arabs, and black arabs. The area has been a crossroads for thousands of years, and thus the people there are descended from many, many different types of people (including Jews converted to Islam in the 7th century!).
