Yup, and then there's roughly the 300 million Arabs who live in North Africa who aren't covered by any of these.


That's why I said Black at least. Anyway, non-Black Arabs would fall under "white" - at least that's the intention of the creators of the form.

Right, but I assure you most of them do not consider themselves "white" by any stretch of the imagination. The term "white" has deviated so much from Caucasian/fair-skinned and became a mostly political term in the US that most Arabs specially 1st and 2nd generation would never identify with.
