Comparitively few Israelis are ethnic Asians. The great majority of today's Israelis

are descended ... within a few generations ... from people who came to Israel from

more than 100 different countries. Israel's diversity and ethnic mix are more like those

of the USA, for example, than like China's, for example.

Technically, yes, as they do come from Asia, but, generally, no. Most people define "Asian" as referring exclusively to those persons from East Asia that were formerly called "Orientals". Additionally, the US Census Bureaus define Middle Easterners (which include Palestinians) as Whites.

Technically, yes, they were Western Asians. Israelis today are considered Western Asians as well.
