The Etyptians and Sumerians most likely would be Caucasians, but they wouldn't be white Caucasians, they'd be brown -- more suitable colouring for warmer, desert climates.

I would not be so sure of that. These folks were likely to be the refugees from the Black Sea flood in 5,600BC. Probably some mixture though.

I don't think there is any basis for that conclusion. Some Israelites (David, for example) are described in the Bible as "ruddy and fair", and they lived in these same areas.
