Phoenicians: Were they WHITE?

they was mid color wtf does it matter?

They were from the country of what is now called Lebanon. Brilliant mariners.

According to wiki, a semite race. so what

define "white"

some people here considere anyone not having blond hairs, bue eyes and milk white skin as "no whites"

those are probably just reptilians

I have phoenicians genes since my father comes from an island with major phoenicians influence.

I've dark hairs, green hazle eyes and I get tanned easily.

Basically, yes. Todau they woyld be called Arabs.

White people are to be found from Europe to the Middle East and scattered through north India and Pakistan.

Doing research.

Yeah, it matters.

I will give out a green for every good answer.

These people argue among themselves whether they're white. Even they don't know.

Cuz Phensha is my adotpted gran baby.We raised her since she was a small child.She didn't even know she was different from the other childrens.

Yes theyre of iranic aryan stock
Thats why youll find lebanese look european a lot even.after arabization of them.original syrians too ,kurds ,theyre all of iran aryan stock
White is not only blond hair blue eyes as nords would have u believe those are just dinarics later illyrians (tall ,long jaws,dark haired )first hunter gatherers original europeans who moved north east west from balkans met in central, eastern europe with arriving iranic peoples celts (medium,blond,brown,red haired circlish heads they mixed creating tall blond long jawed nord or medium blond small jaw eastern european,and all other types modern euros.orig balkanics yugos later slavicized still mostly dinarics by blood and tallest in world thus athletic domination by these nations.

I don't believe they were. I'm not great at history so I may sound really stupid here. Weren't they on the eastern Mediterranean? They could have mixed with people from Athens?

Trying to track down who everyone was or is, is actually pretty difficult.

The Middle East was not always full of Arabs.

The rise of Mohammad and his victories saw the Middle East become Muslim Arab that happened mostly between the years 600AD - 700AD roughly.

Prior to this time it is my understanding Whites lived in the Middle East. In the fertile crescent.
.

The conquest of paradise or the holy land wars when Christians went to try and recapture Jerusalem were from my understanding trying to reclaim land which was once lost in battle with the Muslims.

That land remained lost till the early part or the 20th century but then it was given to the Jews ... go figure?

What is the actual identity of these groups ...

Assyrians

Babylonians

Hyksos

Phoenicians

Philistines

Egyptians

Hebrews

Canaanites

Hittites

Does anyone have any kind of clear answer?

Caucasian.

Weren't the Ancient Phoenicians more of an ancient culture/trade federation, than a specific race?

I mean, they had colonies in the British isles, well before the Romans.

THe Celtiberian were the direct result of Celts and Semetic-Spanish cultures intermixing.
