Indeed. I think that Mynydd meant "North African" with "Arab".
Actually most Lebanese here are darker than Algerians and as dark as Moroccans. And I have never seen any European-looking Lebanese exception for real, only on the Internet or at the TV.
But I think that Aprtangr' kebab shop owners were part of these exceptions since Christian Arabs are mostly to be found in Egypt and Lebanon.
