The Roma spirit, free and strong, In every heartbeat, in every song.
Through fields and forests, roads unplanned, They roam the world, a nomad band. Beautiful women, heroic men, In the Roma, life’s magic begins again.
"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep." (John 10:10-11)

I am not labelling you at all. What I am saying is, however, that (1) the distinction between European and MENA or even at times European and East Asian is not always so clear-cut. Not all of Europe is like Denmark, not all of the Middle East is like Yemen and Central Asians can look either European or East Asian. (2) I'd even say that I see more similarity between Balkan Slavs (except maybe Slovenes and Croats, who are a lot more Central Euro) and Kavkazians than between Balkan Slavs and NW Europeans. Likewise, some Greeks, Italians and Iberians (NOT MOST) can look closer to Levantines and even Iranians than to NW Europeans.

Dont get me wrong, im not judging your feelings but i see inconsistency between your chad ethnocentric image and your backing of it. This is old world, when you say "Europa" it becomes something else. I wouldnt expect such justification of a recent immigrant's son from an ethnocentric rhetoric.

Yes, I agree with that. Balkans has some Turkish cultural influences too. Anyway there is no European race and whiteness is indeed hard to define. People called whites are really Caucasian by real biological race and the same in that way or related with the groups you mention or most of them. Central Asians are mostly, if not entirely mixed race people. It's culture and tradition that separates Europeans more from those groups anyway. Otherwise even Gypsies are same race, Caucasian. I consider them as different group from real Europeans too. They have their own culture and traditions.

You are completely retarded and incapable of making any clear point that I can rebuke as your points are vague as fuck, get to the fucking point or shut up.
Where is the inconsistency? If you see one, explain it. Very simple.
I do not accept immigrants as Germans, per se, no matter what citizenship they have.
If a person is half German and half Euro but identifies fully as German, yes I do accept that person as German.
Sorbs are a native slavic ethnicity living in German lands since the 12th century, most of modern Sorbs say they are German and thats fine by anyone including hardcore neo nazis, what is your point?

Do not get me wrong, I absolutely do not support OWDism or race-denialism. But it is undeniable that racial differences are not always so rigid or binary as we like to think. Just as I roll my eyes when Greeks and Balkanites get angry when people point out the overlap they have with Turks and Kavkazians, so likewise I do the same to Iranians and Afghans when they get angry when people point out the overlap they have with Pakistanis and Northern Indians.

There are population on the outside borders of Europe where we have a logical case of overlapping between for example orient and okzident, there the cultural and linguistic aspect that also includes a ethnicity determinates if a population is more european or more oriental for example.
