[QUOTE]Originally posted by Supercar: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Israel: Not exactly. I am just saying that one "could" say that many Syrians are "white" people. I am not saying I agree with this, I am just stating my experience with dealing with some people from that culture. Remember that I said that Black people have been(and still are) a part of Syrian culture........ Hence, all I am saying is that it isn't necessarily inaccurate to portray George Bush as a representative of an ancient "Syriac" man, understand? I am open to the possibility of its accuracy(or inaccuracy). Salaam [/QUOTE]Well and good for this 'reassessment' or 'modification', which nonetheless has no bearings on my post, which assessed this 'original' post of yours: Isreal wrote: [i]A friend of mine years back was Syrian. I couldn't help but think that if this dude wasn't Arab that he would be considered the same as any other white American........... He claimed to be a descendent of Muhammad. Yet, one day he tried to claim he was white, and I told him that he wasn't white, that he was Semitic........... I wouldn't say he was white, but in the Arabian context, he definitely would be. But I have another Arab friend who is almost the same(almost white looking) like my Syrian friend. But her father is a brown-colored Palestianian........... What am I trying to say???...........Well, according to Diop, in Ramessess III depiction of the various races, [b]one of them was Indo-European.[/b] [b]**If so**[/b], then [b]Bush would qualify to represent that light-skinned person[/b], know what I mean? If that artistic depiction was Syrian, well, [b]there probably are some people of Indo-European descent in Syria[/b](just like in India). Hence, [b]I am not against the equivalency of George Bush in comparison to the [i]Indo-European[/i] above[/b], even if it is Syrian...... BTW, there were, and are Syrians who are Black, just as the original populations of India are Black...........feel me? Salaam [/i] You were indeed using "Indo-European" affiliation as a justification point. The Ancient Egyptians made no reference to "Indo-European" in their art, and so, this would be your personal assessment outside of independent historical verification. [/QB][/QUOTE]
