On an anecdotal level I've worked with Kashmiris in London and about half of them had paler skin than me (though they did have black hair and dark brown eyes so looked darker to a casual observer); also, in the middle Atlas, there were a number of berbers with paler skin and blue eyes.

And Pashtuns are often lighter skinned than Kashmiris.  The idea that everyone from Morocco to Lahore looks like Ahmedinejad, while people beyond that look like Gandhi, is very silly.

Counter example:

I was standing in line at Frankfurt Airport when I saw a couple, probably in their 60s.  Guy had a long beard and a head turban, woman was wearing a pantsuit but also wearing a small turban covering her hair.

They had out their American passports, spoke with American accents, and were very, very white.

He might just be a white muslim.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

You'd think garbon would know better, coming from a race that grows pubes on their head.
Winner of THE grumbler point.

If they were wearing Turbans they were probably white Sikhs.

Maybe they weren't white, just sikh-ly looking.

There is not such thing as a moderate muslim.
