Which middle easterners?

Assyrians, for starters. Outside of the Middle East and (mostly)unquestionably white you have the olive-skinned Greeks and Italians.

I always thought olive skin to be more a really light brown than a yellow, but I suppose now that you mention it, it does a yellowish tinge to it

So you agree that "yellow" isn't an Asian race and that "yellow" people are still white?

No, the olive skin that Greeks and Italians have is from the climate of those regions, while the yellow that the asians have is from mongoloid dna

You got evidence for that?

Where does this explain the origin of olive skin?
