Tell me, why it is so offensive for Arabs to face the fact they are not Caucasians.
What is offensive if you have your own heritage but you yourself are ashamed to admit it.
I don't feel offended to admit my nationality and my heritage. Why Arabs are so much offended to be told the scientific truth that they are not Caucasians.

Arabs are Semites. We’ve all heard the term
anti-Semitism being used — often to describe Arabs. While
antisemitism does specifically indicate hatred for
Jews, the word “Semite” comes from the Bible and referred originally to anyone who spoke one of the
Semitic Languages.'
Where here do you see that Arabs are Caucasians, is beyond my imagination.
Of course, everybody can check the basic facts for the Arab ethnics and to understand the difference between Arabs and Caucasians.
To claim you are in different ethnic group is extremely stupid and ugly. Thus you deny your own heritage. Odd. Sick mind. You are what you are, what else can you be.
Also, it shows only racism itself. Why is that passion to be white? what makes you believe it is good to be white and Caucasian?
Please answer my question as I answer yours, it is a simple politeness to do so.

Arabs (
Arabic:
عرب,
ʿarab) are a major
panethnic group whose native language is
Arabic, comprising the majority of the
Arab world.
[15] They primarily inhabit
Western Asia,
North Africa, and parts of the
Horn of Africa. Before the spread of Islam, Arab referred to any of the largely nomadic Semitic tribes inhabiting the Arabian Peninsula. In modern usage Arabic-speaking populations are a highly heterogeneous collection of peoples, with diverse ancestral origins and identities. The ties that bind the Arab people are common
linguistic,
cultural, and
political traditions. As such, Arab
identity is based on one or more of
genealogical,
linguistic or
cultural grounds,
[16] although with competing identities often taking a more prominent role,
[17] based on considerations including regional,
national,
clan,
kin,
sect, and
tribe affiliations and relationships. If the Arab panethnicity is regarded as a single population, then it constitutes one of the world's largest groups after
Han Chinese and
Indo-Aryan Indians.
The
Arabian Peninsula itself was not entirely originally Arabic.
Arabization occurred in some parts of the Arabian Peninsula. For example, the
language shift to Arabic displaced the indigenous
South Semitic Old South Arabian languages of modern-day
Yemen and southern
Oman. These were the languages spoken in the civilizations of
Sheba, Ubar,
Magan,
Dilmun, and
Meluhha— whose origin is debated; Lionel Bender (1997) suggesting an origin in Ethiopia,
[18] while others suggest the southern portion of the Arabian peninsula. A recent (2009) study based on a Bayesian model to estimate language change concluded that the latter viewpoint is more probable.

What makes you believe that Arabs are Caucasians and whites, please elaborate.
