Basically everyone north of the Mediterranean are white. It starts to get iffy around the Med. Slavs are a grey area. Greeks and Sicilians are definitely "swarthy".
I understand that Greeks and Sicilians are darker skinned, but I'm not sure what race the are purported to be mixed with. So there is a natural phenomenon where people who live in sunnier climates will be darker skinned. That is independent of race, IMO. At the coarsest, there are only a few races. I guess people are asserting that Meds are part African? If you assume they are mixed, I guess it depends on what you think of Arabs. I have always broadly thought of Arabs as Caucasian if not white, if that makes any sense. They're not sub-Saharan African. They're not Oriental. So what would they be?
There have been extremely few Caucasian Arabs. Really the most by far was a few hundred fighting in and around Chechnya at one time. Other than that I only heard about one Palestinian "refugee" randomly living in Dagestan.
More Turks and Persians historically.(their respective empires).
Quite a lot of Mountain Jews but today they're rather in Israel.
I'm asking what race they are then. You're saying Turks and Persians are the races?
They're Middle Easterners, and Central Asians in the case of Turkics generally but the Turks are rather Turkified. It's not racial, it's regional and linguistic.
The Caucasian languages are totally different than the Semitic ones like Arabic (Mountain Jews aside), and also totally different than most of the European languages as well as Persian etc (Indo-European).
