I thought that a lack of body hair was also common among Orientals (Such as Yemeni Jews.)

Yeah, among them and "northern Arabs". I rarely see Arabs with too much body hair, it's mostly the different Iranian groups who are hairy.

Well Osama Bin Laden is very hairy so most of us Westerners associate Arabs with being very hairy.

actually annunaki i think ure wrong it is southern arabs that are are less hairy (since they are primarily orientalid) north arabs are overwelmingly Irano-afghan/Armenid influenced
and we all know Aremnoids are hariest people on earth,
And to Morello,Osama is not typical arab for the region being Half Syrian Half Afro-Yemeni

He has a full unkempt beard, but body wise (at least by my standards) he is not that hairy, that is of course what i've seen from his limbs, etc. Also every race has its hairier individuals, but overwhelming being hairy typifies the caucasiod race, particularly Greeks, Armenoids and Irano-Afghans. |
