Arabs not as sensitive, I guess

"Reem Yahya and a team from the University of Haifa studied Arabs and Jews while showing them images of hands and feet in painful situations. The two cultures perceived pain differently. The Arabs perceived higher levels of pain over all while the Jews were more sensitive to pain suffered by members of a group other than their own." You are supposed to read this and say: oh, those poor Israelis. (thanks Souheil)
