Obviously Paleolithic Europeans would be closer to "middle easterners" because they are closer to basal Eurasians and have less genetic drift from them? You answered this yourself.
I think I'm not making clear what I am trying to say. And we are arguing about things beside the point.
What I am saying is that the way Villabruna/WHG plots(and as suggested by their phenotype) it is obvious that they have a close relation to other MORE MODERN near eastern groups, like Anatolian hunter gatherer and Caucasus hunter gatherer, and that the samples we find of them in Europe are a mixture of these people and the paleolithic European HG. But I can't prove this until(if ever) a non-mixed much earlier haplo I sample is found more near their homeland, which I propose is around Caucasus/Iran(Haplo IJ was found in an Iranian man if I'm not mistaken).
My claim is that what we know as WHG are not a base population but a mixture between a near eastern group and the paleolithic euro HG. Is this completely disproven or not possible, nope.
As far as your claims about haplo E coming from Near East/Levant. Recent findings of Nigerian males with Haplo D of a different older subclade than Eurasian D proves that DE separated inside of Africa. As well as the recent findings of a ancestral population called ANA(Ancestral North African, deeper than basal Eurasian) are believed to have spread haplo E throughout Northern Africa, than into the levant. Where a hunter gatherer population lived of mostly haplogroup CT. (Is this the unknown hunter gatherer group related to villabruna?)
WHG were black - skinned, weren’t they?
In VUR everything works differently than in the rest of Europe. For example, if you ask who is lighter Spaniards or Bulgarians, then a small war will begin, they will count the percentages of the light eyes and the light hair and the winner will be the Spaniards who will only be half a percent lighter than the Bulgarians, very ridiculous. And if you ask who is lighter Komi people or Khanty/Mansy this question doesn't make sense because in VUR no one can be lighter than West Siberians. If outside the region Komi people are among the lightest European groups, inside VUR they with their 75-80 percent light eyes are literally wogs. Say West Siberians browner than South Europeans it's just raping the facts. Put any South European group in VUR and we'll see who's the browner. Lel.
Nope - their skin was intermediate.
