Iran - 8 year old caught stealing bread...

Sorry everyone. This story apparently is not true and it was all staged.

An 8 year old childcaught stealing bread in a market of Iran is
punished in a public place.
His arm will be crushed and will lose its use
permanently


I have had it up to here! How can anyone have any peace in their life with all this going around? The other day someone sent me a group of pictures where a little boy was being punished for stealing. Apparently he stole some bread because he was hungry. They forced him to lie down on the ground with his arms extended and had a car cross over his arms. It results in unbearable pain, to say the least, and two broken arms in several places. His arms were crushed and shattered under the weight of the car. The pictures, carefully demonstrated his ordeal as the car got closer and finally passed over his hands. No human being should endure this kind of savagery. He was no older than 8 or 9. What is wrong with these ignorant savages? What kind of God promotes this barbarism? This story (email) was sent to me a couple of weeks ago and I still have nightmares about it. My sister called me the following day and she was blaming the messenger and was subbing over the phone. At first she condemned the sender of the message asking how could anyone send or show something so obscene to another and next she condemned that Iranian regime condoning this form of medieval cruelty. I agreed. At first, I thought she was over reacting, but it’s now I who can’t erase that picture from my mind. The last time I felt this way was the result of another act by this same regime hanging a veiled woman from a crane in public for dealing drugs or something like that. Shame on them!
