uh i didn't say he's white i was merely commenting on his color he's not as light as most mediterraneans but he's around the skin tone of the stereotypical mediterranean i e very tanned skin color there are ethiopians who are as light or lighter than him but they are very few in number so i wouldn't say that he's darker than a lot of ethiopians i would put those at or around his skin color at tops with those lighter than him much less than that however the pictures that you linked to seem to have bad lighting which is why he appears darker than in other shots if you look here for example you'll see that he's not actually that dark he is however darker than most mediterraneans there are however many egyptians who are darker than him and closer to sadat's skin color yom contribs talk
