She’s actually right, but for the wrong reasons.

Whites are Caucasians. Middle Easterners are Caucasians. Most people don’t call them “white” but, technically, they are.

That's true, as is most of the population of India.

It is true that some middle easterners may be Caucasians but not all- There are more than 50 ethnic groups within the Caucasian region, to include Armenians,Chechens,Ossetians, Georgians and even Cossacks.

This would also be true of Bosnians, Serbs,Croats and Herzegovenians since they intermingled many years ago with slavic people and look quite “caucasian”. The term caucasian has been gradually phased into calling people “european”- a meaningless term really. In the US when “white” people are denigrated by blacks they have a pretty broad brush to include English,Irish,Scotch,Russians,Scandanavians,Poles, Germans and a host of other so called “white” immigrants assimilated into the US citizenry. It serves a distinct political tool of using “victimhood” for the professional political black race baiters. This is how miss whoopi is informed and indoctrinated, and supported by liberal white guilt from a certain group of whites.

It is interesting that the arabic islamists are quite slow to support their Caucasian muslim brethren (maybe because so far they haven't jumped on the “blow myself up” martyrdom). Want to open a can of worms- try talking about the same root race of jews and arabs- Semites.
