Don Lemon of CNN says that Jesus wasn't White. Do you agree?

Jesus was a Jew from the Levant. He would have looked like other Levantines, Greeks, Italians and Spaniards. Under US Census data, all Mediterraneans are White. What is Don Lemon talking about?

There was a story at the time that Jesus father was a Roman soldier named Pantera. So he was half-Italian, half-Mediterranean Jew, and could have been light-skinned.

@hunkalove There are a lot of Levantines with pale white skin. There are many Persians with pale white skin. It isn't a rarity. There are many Moroccan Jews that are ginger.
