  1. The Columbia Encyclopedia defines "Aryan" as follows:

    "Aryan: [Sanskrit,=noble], term formerly used to designate the Indo-European race or language family or its Indo-Iranian subgroup. Originally a group of nomadic tribes, the Aryans were part of a great migratory movement that spread in successive waves from S Russia and Turkistan during the 2d millennium Throughout Mesopotamia and Asia Minor, literate urban centers fell to their warrior bands. Archaeological evidence corroborates the text of the Veda by placing the invasion of India by the Aryans at c.1500 They colonized the Punjab region of NW India and absorbed much of the indigenous culture. The resulting Indo-Aryan period saw the flourishing of a pastoral-agricultural economy that utilized bronze objects and horse-drawn chariots. Before the discovery of the Indus valley sites in the 1920s, Hindu culture had been attributed solely to the Aryan invaders. The idealization of conquest pictured in the Vedic hymns was incorporated into n**i racist literature, in which German descent was supposedly traced back to Aryan forebears."

    The idea that Aryans had blue eyes and blond hair originated with the pseudo-science of the n***s. The n***s considered non-Aryans as inferior people -- sub-humans -- who should be enslaved or wiped out. Thus it led to untold horrors.


  2. Because Aryans Lived in Persia/Iran thousands of years ago, and then moved north to Southern Russia, before migrating towards Eastern Europe...

    Modern-day Iran (Aryan, which means noble), has little trace of a civilization that passed through that region thousands of years ago...

  3. "Aryan" as is used by white supremacist, neo-n**i types, is a misappropriation.

    "Aryan", and its modern version "Iran", refers to the people who lived in that area thousands of years ago, and eventually founded the Persian empire. They never came close to Western Europe, and were neither prototype nor ancestor of the blue-eyed, blond-haired stereotype.
