Are Israeli people white?

Some Israelis are "white", some are not. Some Israelis are true Caucasians, having immigrated directly from the actual Caucasus Mountains of Eurasia. Some Israelis have very darkly pigmented skin, having immigrated from Ethiopia. And then there are pigmentless Israelis who suffer from albinism and who have the palest skin of all. Israel's population is a mosaic of all the world's ethnicities, races, religions, nationalities, lifestyles and philosophies. Like in the United States, immigrants have arrived in Israel from the four corners of the earth and have become citizens of this country. It may not be accurate to say that a majority of Israelis belong to any one particular racial group. Large segments of the population are European, large segments are Mediterranean and Middle-Eastern and a sizable segment is from Central Asia. If these groups meet the definition of "white" then the answer could be a qualified yes. A sizable number of Israelis come from the Indian sub-continent and a lesser number come from East Asia and from Central Africa. The only accurate generalization that can be made about Israelis is that a majority of them are Jewish.

How did Israel come into existence?

In 1917 after WWI when Turkey lost control over then Palestine it was handed over to mostly British control and ultimately destined to get on it's feet and become the Jewish homeland. The few Arabs that remained didn't accept the plan and long before it could be implemented began the invention of terrorism that they unleashed upon the small Jewish population that had been living there for hundreds of years. England then began limiting the permitted amount of Jewish immigration and after the tragic events of WWII had almost eradicated the Jews of Europe a small underground army of Jews began fighting the British and Arab armies till they got independence in 1948 Offering all Jews and Arabs who wished to remain citizenship with full equal rights for all. Many Arabs decided to leave heeding promises from neighboring Arab countries that the Jewish state would be wiped out soon enough. In 1967 acting on misinformation from Russian intelligence Egypt decided to launch a war and got all the neighboring Arab countries to join in and attack Israel. In a miraculous preemptive strike Israel wiped out virtually the entire Air Forces of all the invading armies. After 6 days of intense ground combat taking place throughout then divided Jerusalem being occupied by Jordan along with the west bank. At the same time they were battling Egypt in the south and at the end of the war had conquered Jerusalem the west bank and Gaza.

In 2006 Israel returned Gaza however not to Egypt who it was captured from rather to the newly created Palestinian Authority who would soon be taking over by rival terrorist organization HAMAS.
