The late Maumar Gadhafi, himself a descendant of that ancient racial mixture
of Black and Indo-Aryan centuries ago (notice his fizzy/curly hair) knew very
well about his Black African Arab ancestry despite being pale skinned himself.
Gadhafi was quite a maverick in his own right and may have made some
delusional statements from time to time but he certainly knew the history of
the true Arabs and the people now known as Africans...he once told the
present day Egyptians ( a significant number of whom have now become pale
skinned after centuries of mixing and mass immigration from Greece, Rome
and Turkey ) in a television interview while on a state visit, that the ancient
Pharoes were originally black skinned people from sub-Saharan Africa ...the
Egyptian media (the newspapers) then mocked and ridiculed him
On another occasion Gadhafi on a visit to Kano, Nigeria in 1989, also made the
following statement
ان اجدادكم عرب اتو من اليمن منذ اكثر من خمسة آالف سنة الى ھذه البقاع
