Many Turks are blue eyed and green eyed, as are many Palestinians. If you look at Islamic history and look how far up into Europe and into the Soviet Republics Islam spread many years ago, it's not surprising. Captives were taken off to be slaves, women often to the harems of the caliphs, and the offspring who had light complexions, eyes, and hair were considered to be exceptionally beautiful.

When I get some time I'll dig out that map and the details on how far up into Europe Islam spread during the dark ages.
