Is being white considered anti-Islamic?

That is, are white people automatically considered not to be Islamic, and cannot be? (only Muslims allowed)? Would a radical Islamic shoot a white person without questioning their religious belief?

Update:

@Bigger: so the first thing an extremist is going to do when seeing a white person is go "WTF?" Why?

I wonder which places, that have extremist Islam people, are dangerous to white people because they are white.

    Oh man....you are so brainwashed by fox news......

    We have WHITE Muslim scholars such as Abdul Rahman Green and Yusuf Estates...They are WHITE..and respected as great scholars of Islam, there is no supremacy of Race, Caste or Creed in Islam except for your deeds. And why would someone try to shoot you because you're a white??? Stop watching fox news..

    Ever heard of Yvonne Ridley??? She was a journalist who went to Afghanistan undercover and was caught and detained. But was not tortured let alone being shot, and she was not even forced to revert to Islam..and was freed after a few days...that too because USA was about to start a war with Taliban and she was freed for her safety....

    So Afghanistan might the most extreme place you might think of and yes the people there are hostile towards Western people...because you are bombing them raping their woman killing their children ....what do you expect them to do lend you a CANDY????

    Well, as a white Muslim, I would say no. You must be unaware of the many, many Muslims who happen to be Caucasian in places like... THE CAUCASUS. Not to mention the Baltic states, Azerbaijan, etc etc. I know it sounds crazy, but radical Muslims are people too. They're not going to shoot anyone one sight, especially if he's a white guy in a thobe. Humans are naturally curious creatures. The first thing they're probably going to do is go "WTF?"

    From what I've encountered from radical Islamists, they only care if you are Muslim or not really. They don't consider race in the matter. All that matters to them is that you're also a Muslim yourself.

    Which is not racist, it's just ignorant.

    An extremist, possibly, but there is nothing wrong with a white muslim.

    there are many white muslims.

    and islam says :

    "All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black, nor a black has any superiority over a white except by piety and good action." - Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)

    "O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things)." Quran 49:13

    brother, what are you saying is wrong.

    Islam is against colour difference so what you are saying is useless and baseless too

    No, but having an IQ greater than 71 is enough to make you anti muslim
