Language and physical appearance are also not the criteria for being and Aarya.
Manusmrti, chapter 10 :-
<i>
45. All those tribes in this world, which are excluded from (the community of) those born from the mouth, the arms, the thighs, and the feet (of Brahman), are called Dasyus, whether they speak the language of the Mlecchas (barbarians) or that of the Aryans.
</i>
Dasyu mean thief or bandit. All Iranians and Europeans are Dasyus, since they are not part of the 4-fold varna system. The fact that many of them speak an "Indo-European" language makes no difference. They cannot claim themselves to be an Aarya.
<i>
57. A man of impure origin, who belongs not to any varna, whose character is not known, who, though not an Aryan, has the appearance of an Aryan, one may discover by his acts.
58. Behaviour unworthy of an Aryan, harshness, cruelty, and habitual neglect of the prescribed duties betray in this world a man of impure origin.
</i>
This statement is very important. Some Europeans and Iranians may look similar to Indians in physical appearance, but that does not mean they are Aryan.
Their behaviour is clearly Anaarya. They are barbaric savages who are trying to steal our Vedic heritage.
