Middle eastern people are dark skined people. If jews are from the middle east then why are they all so white.

Which Jews? Did you forget that Judaism is a religion?
Palestinian Jews look like..... Palestinians. For the record, not all Palestinians look the same either.
Not all Italians look Italian; same for Hungarians, Germans, Poles, Russians, everyone. Never Heard of the concept of interbreeding? The Spanish used to to destroy the original natives in the Americas and the Caribbean.
Speaking of Middle Eastern people: Why is Christ white?! How offensive is that?! Should he be depicted as, somehow... darker?

Because not all middle eastern are dark-skinned people. I think you are confusing middle easterns with Africans (Egyptians maybe).
I've met a lot of Iranians & Turkish who are not at all dark. In fact, they have green eyes, tall, and very white.
But then again, it depends which part of Middle East you are talking about.

Because Judaism is a religion an jews are everywhere and have many looks, Now, Sabras (born in Israel), look just like the Palestinians

The jews have intermarried with europeans and Americans to the point you cannot identify them with their former self. At one time they looked exactly like the arabs, which they are. Jews are not a race but a religion.

I think youre confused arabs are not dark skinned... they vary in color so do jews and so do americans... many arabs especially from the northern parts like lebanon, syria, palestine and northern parts of saudi have pale white skin and green/blue eyes.
most saudi are acually white...but like in every country there are many blacks due to slavery in the past. and it is a know fact that jews and arab are cousins.

Jews in Israel come in all different colors, from white to black and everything in between. Skin color has no significance to Jews.
Arabs also come in a range in skin complexions,
so what.
