Here's the difference, rubberhead. If YOU insulted an arab, he might spit at you or curse, or pass out because of your body-odor. If you insult a NYC street Italian, you"ll get slammed & won't wake up until next week!!!!!!
Ciao from an UNMIXED, 100% Italian (Caucasian) guy in NYC.

Well a great deal of Difference genetically, majority of Italians are R1b haplogroup associated with Roman and Germanic tribes. J2 haplogroup associated with Phoenicians. You also G etc.
Arab are J1 (J-M267) haplogroup. Italy also has around 3%-5% J1-M267, with higher percentages in the North and Piedmont which never saw a Arab occupation, also shares the same footprint as G haplogroup another ancient Neolithic. Your also looking at multiple periods of J1-M267 entering Italy, first from the upper neolithic period predating Italic tribes, then next period believed during the Pheoncians period from the Lavent J1-L58 (semetic). Later you have Islamic expansion which the subclad J-L858 is predominate.
Genetics are still mapping out J1 in Italy given the overlap in some areas with Pheoncian / Greek colonies and later J-858 Islamic expansion was minimal, difficult to determine for now. Bari was controlled by the Muslims for a couple of decades, and Bari was also a center of Jewish scholars. Italy also has the worlds oldest Jewish community outside Lavent.

Well, with the way you answered this question it does not seem that you pay mind to grammar or history. Caucasians inhabit North Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. Furthermore, many of the Arabs who conquered Europe were already mixed with Greeks, Romans, Berbers. Also, according to a DNA study of many British men, plenty have the DNA of people from Lebanon. Why? Probably because the Phoenicians had settlements in Britain. News flash, my friend, people of the Mediterranean mixed with people in Europe. Also, on another note some Arabs on the coast are lighter than you even.

Romans always lived by the Arabs and their history and what they have left behind in found in north africa , syria and jordan , italian are descended from romans
they are very similar to arabs and even their sound close to arab sound and they similar to Arabs in many way .
ancient Arabs never called Romans are similar to them
in the stories arabs where taller than romans but romans where lighter than arabs
race always change , romans have lived in north africa and middle east so they have got mixed with them and arabs have invaded north africa, northen of middle east and southern europe , so they have got mixed with them .
siclian are darker than north africa for a fact and the blonde siclian don t looks like german at all but looks blonde sicilain as some arabs are blonde with blue eyes and still look arabs
we can t deny that arabs italian and greek looks similar specially Greeks the only Europeans that eat lamp with rice and have lots of dishes just like arab dishes and even their own music very similar to arabic more than italian
i would say greek much similar but that don t make them arabs nor italian
ancient greeks they were mostly blonde and have green eyes and right now there is dark greeks with brown eyes
peopel looks change all the time because they intermix which is normal
some italian and greek have arabic origin and some arabic have italian or Greek origin
when i meet a greek or italian and people from south france and south spain they just feel arabs
but Italian are European , Catholics speak a romance language they have strong ties with other Europeans
arabs are Semitic people speak arabic descended from abarahm and close to jewish people and they are muslims mostly
in the end they are both Caucasian both are Mediterranean both have this hot blood and both love olive oil

OK. Arabs live in tents and Italians tend to live in apartment styled homes. Arabs wear cloths(keffiyeh) on their heads and Italians wear flat caps like the Irish. Italians go around with gelled up side parted pompadours and wifebeaters while Arabs wear white robes. Arabs own convenience stores while Italians know how to cook good food. Speaking of food, Arabs like to eat hummus and kabob while Italians like to eat pasta, spaghetti, and pizza. Italians drive ferraris and like to be in mafias and shoot people up and Arabs ride camels and blow people up.
(This is a joke if you can't tell).

The difference are enormous,but both are human beings.Italians hasn't simpathy for arabs in Italy,for theirs primitive traditions and because they consider a woman like object.In Italy the arabs want take off the Christ cross from the hospitals,schools ecc.We don't like the arabs but is not a racial point is a big difference mentality.We prefer help them in the way of democracy in theirs country not in our.There are more sicilians blonde blue eyes than you think.Do you know the why?Because Sicily was conquered by normans.Sicilian language is a mix of italian and ancient French.But Why do americans consider people from the colour of skin?

Many groups of people invaded Italy including the Greeks and Carthiginians and Germanic tribes from the north. Italians are a mix of these and other genetic pools.
Thus they are Italian...not Arab, who have their own mix going on

Just because Italians have Arabic heritage doesn't mean they're Arabs. They're a distinct race of their own. Most of their genetics actually come from Roman times, as well as other parts of Europe.
That's like saying that the English are actually Germans, or the Scottish are actually Norwegians.

you are too ignorant to have a answer
have you ever been in italy?
south europe as spain and only sicily in italy was invaded for a little time from arabs
WE ITALIANS ARE A NATIONALITY NOT A RACE
(ITALY that has got thousands years of civilazation and culture, was inhabited by hundreds populations as celts, north africans, germans, spanish, french, austrians, central asians, ecc)
SICILY THAT IS THE SOUTHEST PART OF ITALY WAS THE ONLY NORMAN COLONY IN MEDITERRANEAN SEA
AND THE NORMANS WERE A POPULATION THAT CAME FROM NORWAY (DO YOU KNOW WHERE IS NORWAY???)

Like antonio said, an Arab holds himself to a higher standard than a goop.
