Israeli Citizenship is determined solely by religion. The only reason that a Palestinian can't be an Israeli citizen is they haven't converted to Judaism. That's religious discrimination.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_citizenship_law#:~:text=Every%20Jew%20has%20the%20unrestricted,one%20parent%20is%20a%20citizen.
Otherwise you'd also have to classify the Protestant vs Catholic wars in Europe as racist too.
As I stated, it is not incorrect to use the term racism for religious discrimination, especially not when it involves a religion you can't just join at will. What matters is moreso whether they see themselves as a seperate people from whoever they discriminate against.
But you can! It's in the article I linked.
