Iranian photos of boy being punished for stealing bread.

I received this heads up from my sister-in-law in Colombia.

If this has posted earlier sorry but we need to see this everyday to understand what these Muslims are capable of doing.

This should be seen by all who think Islam is a religion of peace and compassion.

Over and over again.

Most Iranians seem to approve, I see no evidence of rebellion, only Nationalism.

They seem like their leader's trash-talk, and threats.

It was not only posted months ago, but debunked, also.

Believe it or not, this is a kid whose father has him "peforming" this sick stunt.

In lieu of actually viewing this, can we just get a description of what is taking place in these photos?

The kid is not actually hurt...it's an act that he performs for money. Check out the link to snopes above.

This is merely a father-son scam, not torture or punishment.

Have seen this one in the past. It was debunked, I think on Snopes.com. The kid and his family earn money this way, sort of like a carnival side show.

There is either something in the cloth wrapping the kids arm or the kid puts his arm in a shallow trench that allows the truck to go over his arm without causing harm. Dad bets the onlookers that the truck can roll over the kids arm without harm. Bets are placed, the truck rolls, the kid puts on a face of pain, and might even scream, (what's a show without a little drama). Moments later, the kid gets up like nothing has happened, Dad picks up his cash, and the family can buy something for dinner that evening.

Are barbaric things done in the name of Islam? You betcha! It is my understanding, however, that this is not an instance of it.

I would bet that the folded blanket hides a shallow wooden channel, with the groove perhaps 1.5" deep x 1.5 wide. The tire isn't flexible enough to enter the groove, and the arm is surprizingly compressible, without damage. The kid has to cry, wail and writhe convincingly, but, I'll bet Daddy's little money maker gets an extra candy, and an xbox...
