The Iranians are the original Aryans, people of caucasian origin speaking an indo-european language. They are not Arabs, which the residents of Saudi Arabia are.
I knew that when I posted. To me they are all Islam and all Arabs. Put them next to each other and I bet you could not tell me which is which. Ishmael was their father. I am an American Indian of the Yurok Tribe. We have nothing in common with the Cherokee (other than getting screwed) but we, as all the tribes, are still American Indians.
