I've been wondering this myself. The Italians are mostly arab in the south of Italy but in the north they are clearly Nordic European. The Irish are also very dark skinned with dark features in some areas but in others they are red-headed, freckle-faced, pale skinned. The dark Irish, or black Irish as they are known, are also mostly arab.

I guess it depends on what area of the country you are talking about. All of Europe was overrun by other races so there are some areas that have dark people and other areas with lighter skinned people. Germans tend to have pale skin and dark features due to the invasion of Mongols about 2000 years ago. Yes, that's right, the Aryan race is made up of people that are part Asian.

Utter nonsense. There have been Arab pirate raids in southern Italy (but no settlement), but they really didn't make it to Ireland.

Re: Do Irish and Italians count as white?
Let me guess .. its a trick eugenics question, right ?

Only nazi's, racists, and KKK think it actually MATTERS.

I bet you think your race is superior ?

Who cares what color or race a person is ?( rhetorical question) a person with a superiority complex

Maybe you should join a white supremecist movement
so you can feel even more validated and superior

Sad thing is .. reality check, white folks are
becoming the minority, I bet that really grinds
your gears.

You are a fucking dumbass. The Spanish Armada was made up of mostly Spanish Arabs. When the Armada was destroyed by the British navy in the early 17th century, the Spanish-Arab sailors washed ashore and landed in Ireland. They mated with the Irish women and viola, you have the Black-Irish race. Do some reading before posting bullshit.

You may be right to but only to a certain extent. If you look at most of the black Irish, they tend to have features similar to latin americans. They could easily pass for eachother. Danica Patrick looks very much like a latina. Burt Reynolds looks decidely Mexican. And so on.

Re: Do Irish and Italians count as white?
Let's clarify what is meant by White in America:
1. Caucasian ancestry.
2. Old-school American culture.
3. No identification with any other cultures other than American.

However, does this mean that Italians that assimilate American culture can be considered White? What about Hispanics that have dropped their heritage and assimilated with American culture?

The big question is why does there have to be a different definition for White in the US than in other countries? In all other countries around the world White means caucasian.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 22907950


Iranians are Persian, so yes they are Aryans and distant cousins of the Germans. Some Afgans are also Aryan and have blond hair and blue eyes. Of course, there are other Afgans who are Arab. They are not Aryan but are a caucasoidal people like the Indians. Complicated, isn't it? I guess what it really comes down to is that by creating a multi-cultural US, we no longer know what American culture is. If immigrants had assimilated American culture as did the Germans, there would be no culture clash. What a mess.

If US politicians would grow some balls they would lead rather than follow and enforce assimilation laws. Make immigrants assimilate American culture or face deporation. How? By not letting flags of other countries be flown within the US. That is where it starts.
