...oh, huh? I have to go back and look....though I have to add that there are Iraqi Chaldeans who look more Irish than any Euro. In Detroit visiting friends I was introduced to a young woman and her toddler son....she had the most lovely creamy white skin, not a splotch or blemish or pimple on her...and the most amazing green eyes, lit by fire from within...but the real shocker was her hair...I'd never seen red hair of that color and abundance...it was really almost golden and thick and healthy looking...not the way Irish look sickly and washed out...and her son had the same gorgeous hair but with deep blue eyes...naturally I assumed a Chaldean man had fulfilled his dreams and married a white woman....when I asked if she was Irish the people there responded in amusement...told me she was Chaldean and from Iraq.

,,then I recalled that my father used to speak of mountaineers in Iraq, whole villages, where the men and women were red-haired and blonde, and gorgeous, with blue and green eyes....so much for another myth....we Darkies even produced the most gorgeous redheads!
