I don't think there is a white race issue here, there is a pedophile decapitating nutcase issue that people decided to follow like god. The false god is a god of war. THAT is an issue!

Muslim Arabs in Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine look no different from their Christian counterparts.

Likewise Copts in Egypt resemble their Muslim countrymen, and Iraqi Christians resemble their Muslim countrymen.

You know Christian Arabs pray to Allah, because "Allah" means God in Arabic. Muslims, Christians, and Jews all pray to the same God.

To infer otherwise would be like saying "The French don't worship the same god that we do, they worship Dieu instead of God" or "The Italians don't worship God, they worship Dio" (many heavy metal fans do, but that's another story)

Are you saying the Christian God is a God of war and a false god?

That has not been my observance at all. But I haven't been exposed to many christian Arabs, so I could certainly be off on my observations.

If most christian arabs look just like muslim arabs, then that just means that both groups aren't white.

His new CAFE standards are going to be a disaster, making cars substantially more dangerous and expensive.
The Fort Hood killer was a white man; NOT a "person of color". Not all white people have pasty white skin; some of us are rather "brown".

America was supposed to be a melting pot until the multicultarists hijacked this idea a few decades ago.

The better question is, why can't America see people as individuals?

Most Christian Arabs from a particular country look like Muslim Arabs of the same country.

A Lebanese Christian looks more like a Lebanese Muslim than he or she looks like an Iraqi Christian.

I've never met a Moroccan Christian but Moroccan Jews and Moroccan Muslims are indistinguishable from each other.

The Arabs of Lebanon, Syria, and Palestine have more European genes thanks to the Greeks and Romans than the Arabs of Iraq, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, etc. do.

Why doesn't America accept Arabs as being part of the White Race?

This is an insult to the white race. Thats like asking why are they not accepted as part of the black race, or asian race, because guess what...they're not any of those, they are Arabs. I think your question will be answered next time you go to the local 7-11, Dunkin Donuts, or gas station as to why they are not part of the white race. Everyone on this site seems to be about how great diversity is yet almost every post it seems like everyone is trying to make everyone the same. Well guess what we are not. If we are all the same there would be no diversity. My black VW is not the same as your red toyota and it never will be, not even close. Doesnt seem like anyone has any pride in there heritage anymore. Lets just mix everything up...you are who you are and stop trying to change it.
