The Semites were once a great race, the original middle easterners were light-skinned semites right? Didn't the arabs invade from saudi arabia and forcefully assimilate most of the middle easterneres? Arabs really are the lowest of the low. Hell, Arabs' prefferred race to mate with are sub-saharan african blacks! ROFL, that shows a lot. What great thing have arabs brought? They bring islam and chaos and are ugly as hell.
anyways, persians, though, are a part of the great European race. Persian language is an indo-european language and the persians are descendents of the indo-europeans obviously.
and Iran was based on race, Iran throughout its history defended itself from arabs and other invaders, thinking race doesn't exist is liberal thinking.
