Matthew 27:48-49: His betrayer had given them a sign: “The One I kiss, He’s the One; arrest Him!” 49 So he went right up to Jesus and said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed Him.
Judas had to kiss Jesus so that that his arresters could pick him out of a crowd. Had he been white, like you say, and not a swarthy Middle Eastern looking person in the Middle East, this would have been unnecessary. Judas would have just said, "Jesus is the blonde haired, blue eyed rosy cheeked Aryan. Go arrest literally the only white guy in Israel."
But hey, you do whatever you have to do to feel good about being the seed of Abraham and worshiping the Jews holy land, to which you probably have no genetic lineage, as your own.
