Did you just scold me, you ass? I'm giving you this one on credit, but next time just assume I wouldn't mock you pointlessly like so much QB and fucking google it yourself.

Saying Iranian is synonymous with Indo-European is identical to saying that Nordic person is synonymous with Indo-European. "Iranian" is a distinct type that can't even be considered - genetically, politically, culturally - identical to Arabs, much less the entire body of Indo-Europeans.

AND WHILE WE ARE AT IT when you say "Indo-European" are you referring to language groups or ethnic groups? Because usually Indo-European is used to refer to language groups, and the roughly analogous ethnic term is Caucasian or Caucasoid.
