I don't understand this blending in theory. They still look Middle eastern to me. I don't remember ever mistaking someone hispanic for someone from the Middle East. Totally different features and complexion -- same with the Indians which I have mixed up with hispanics but not with Middle Eastern types.
Am I missing something?
Not sure....I've never mistaken someone hispanic for someone middle eastern. MEs are....."hairier" than hispanics of Mexican descent.
I've been offline for a few days, but I've been watching the news for at least 2 hours a day and talk radio most of the rest of the day. And yet, this is the FIRST I've heard of this incident!
