Firstly, the ancient Mesopotamians were evidently white. They were a sister group to the early european farmer groups that sprung up all across Europe. In fact, they were often contemporaries of each other (sumer and minoa both arose at roughly the same time), and sometimes the Neolithic farmer communities in Europe that we know about predated the beginnings of civilization in Mesopotamia (the vinča culture, and I will include gobekli tepe for posterity's sake even though it is in modern day turkey)
The only reason that there's really more evidence for the existence of these vast civilizations in Mesopotamia, more so than in Europe, is because of the materials they had available to build with (stone and mud brick) and the hot and dry weather being naturally preserving. Europe is much more rainy, which erodes things especially after thousands of years. Also, the predominant material in most of it to build with would have been wood, which rots very quickly. It's considered a miracle that medieval stave churches still exist, let alone something thousands of years old like the shigir idol, things like this are incredibly rare. We really barely even know anything about the germanic cultures or even people as recent in history as the vikings, which are both comparatively *far more* recent than farming societies in 5000 BC - 3000 BC.
So, in reality, there could have most certainly been written languages developed in Europe by the Neolithic groups that were very old. There could have been stories of the rise and fall of kings and city states like what we know of Mesopotamia, etc. But given the fact that the European climate is much more prone to causing things to decay, and the fact that the most readily abundant material to build with would be wood (and it still is wood), there is much that would have decayed and vanished into history that we will never know about because we quite simply can never know about it.
It is clear that in the places where they were able to create civilizations that still stand (such as minoa in particular and vinča more generally), that the early Europeans were perfectly capable of creating written languages like their sister groups in Mesopotamia and formed societies that were equally as complex. Things like stone henge, on the other hand, are rare glimpses into a world that we simply cannot know anything more about because it is gone.
Furthermore, I consider that Israel must be destroyed
