Haven been to Israel recently, he was probably more swarthy than you think.

White, but certainly not remotely northern European.

Based on what? The descendants of Ham are Biblically recorded as the “swarthy” people. The Messiah was a Semite (of Shem) in all his generations.

Jesus's ancestor King David was fair/ruddy...
1 Samuel 17:42
And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance.
