BTW, this thread could get ugly. I know I have emotions about it. I will try and refrain from saying what I really feel.

You are too close-minded.

This doesn't show anything.
I can bring up 10,000 articles of crap much worse happening in the U.S.
What will that prove? Nothing.
Proves there are bad apples in every group.

This is why these websites are made. People are too close-minded and like to generalize fast.

My dear Aimster,

The difference between Iran and U.S is that in the U.S incidents like these are crimes and in Iran, incidents like these are legally ordained justice.

How do you know this is legal/illegal in Iran?
All I've seen is one incident of this happening out of 70 million Iranians.

Iran does have child protection services just like the U.S and if they feel the child is in danger they will remove him/her from the parent's home.

As you read about all the time, these services/agencies suck because of a lack of funding and the people who work/run them usually are overwhelmed.

In a country that executes people for just about anything do you really think that if it was illegal and enforced that they would take pictures and have a grand celebration and surely you can link use the the person execution or punishment if it was illegal and enforced.

In fact that it is precisely why I'am asking questions !!!!!!!!!!

If I posted something like 'OMFG!!! Look at these barbarian mullahs' then your arguements would have held some water. But I was the one who asked the questions first!!!

No, I do not open the Kleenex box for every picture, bit come on, this is beyond words!!!

Here we can plainly see a child grimacing with pain and the men who hold its arms under a vehicles's wheels to crush and all you can argue about is interpretations!!!!!

who were you before you were banned?

I'm sorry there are only 150 executions in Iran every year.

You are just blabbering about nothing.
You don't even know what it is you are talking about.

Grand celebration? I'm sorry this is reality. Not a dream world. Stop pulling crap out of your ass, I know there is a ton of stuff there but throw it elsewhere.

Iran is a dreadful place. Populated by barbaric people who see no problem in killing or torturing children. Aimster is an apologist for the islamo-facist Iranian regime.

[NSFW - disturbing image of girl, hung] Girl, 16, hung in Iran for "unchaste" behaviours

i dont think anyone here could honestly condone punishment such as those. are some of the actions of their government extreme? yes... the people there are quite repressed. i wouldnt say we have a perfect, altruistic regime in the states either. (no, i am not comparing the 2 .. wouldnt want a fire here)....

anyways, point is, to say that iran is a dreadful place populated by barbaric people is an ignorant generalization. things like these do nothing but add to the prejudice and bigotry in real, darn-tootin amerikuns

To the guy who posted the link to prove a point to me:

She was accused of abusing a child.

Why are you posting executions where the person who is being hung is accused of being a child abuser? I dont care how old they are.

Look at all the child abuse threads on anandtech and look at everyone who says burn them. When other countries actually kill them it is all of a sudden wrong.

Make up your minds.

How about we burn you?
 
You guys should back off Aimster. He is not defending the Iranian regime, he said a few times that he doesn't like them. All he's saying is that this was not a state-sponsered event, just something that a few sickos did. It happened to happen in Iran, but there are sickos everywhere. I think the people who did should be hunted down and shot on the spot.

WOW, hasty generalization, why didn't you say that fvking Christians are out of control too when children are being ANALY RAPED by priests in the churhces we have here in the states and the Church is protecting them too. What we see above is child abuse 'circus act and it happens in every country, but we like to look the other way untill it comes to a case were Muslims / Arabs are involved. I talk from experience I live in an area with a good number of Muslims in it and I have alot of Muslim friends and I always talk to them about relegion and I have read a big part of the Quran I didn't see where it says torturing ppl for nothing is okay.

I have seen alot of cruelty in the Bible alot of it is purley not logical at all and doesn't match that image we like to give others about Christianity, the sad part is that most of the ppl bashing Muslims just becasue they are Muslims don't even know what's in the Bible, and where does it say that they are Muslims, they could have been Chrisitans (yes there are other relegions in the Middle east adn in Iran WOW I bet you that % 90 don't know SH!T about that ).

Aimster you are wasting your time with these Anti-Islamic / Arabic FANATICS, I say a wrong act is a wrong act , I don't care what a person's relegion is, I have never heared a Muslim saying saying well this or that did this crime becasue he is "A fvked up Chrisitan". And if it happened , well I have to say he is "fvked up" as much as the ppl in here who are spewing Anti-Islamic propaganda are.

OH and OP you are a TROLL, since now we know that this wasn't a punishment and it's just an ignorant STUNT, why don't you change the title of your post !!
And as we see his arms weren't crushed . Let me suggest a title : A crazy stunt that happened to be in IRAN ( YA THOSE PPL WE HATE BLINDLY FOR NO REASON)
 
I have been in Kuwait for 2 years and their form of punishment is shocking to western standards. There is not a bunch of appeals. If you are caught steeling they usualy cut off one of you hands. Works every time. When they hang soneone it is shocking. It is performed in the town square and not like we do it in the states. They hoist the person ( male or female ) up, put a rope around their neck and let they down. They strangle to death and it's grusom. Seen one and one was enough. I go home in about 2 weeks and I'll be glad to go. Pease...

WOW , they actually hang murderes infront of everyone so ppl can learn from other's mistakes how crule. WE HAVE THE FVKING ELECTRIC CHAIR !!!!! LOOK HOW MRECIFUL WE ARE, how ignorant of you.

And you are FVKING TROLLING HERE, Muslims don't just catch someone and accuse him of theft and cut his arm on spot, there are rules about that , these rules include but not restricted to witneses, proof, court..a judge..etc
If these punishments are state sponsored as you are saying then by Kuwait's law proof must be presented.

Do you know in Islam a man or women or both accused of having illegal sex (like they are not married or something like that ) 4 witnesses must approach the court and all of them must say that they have without any doubt have seen the man and woman being accused doing it and if one them is not sure then the case is false, and the witnesses are punished in case it was proven that they were lying.
 
Also everyone here that doesn't find it in his heart to tell the OP to change the title is as much of a FANATIC and a TROLLISH as much as the OP is, now that he was given the proof of what happened he is just looking for a fight, and you know what if all the sheep in here will just go with the flow and attack a fellow member(Aimster) after he tried to present logical arguments about this crazy act , and tried to explain to everyone that it's just another barbaric act that can happen in any country and that stuff like that happens even in our country, then I am ready to teach every ignorant member here a good A$$ lesson, so if you disagree with me , approach me with a logical argument that has proof and doesn't look like it's being driven by ignorance and fanatacisim then I will listen. Other wise STFU !! I am sick of ignorance being used to justfy people's trollish posts.

Please. What religion in the middle east condones the stoning of people or the honor raping of women. It sure as hell isnt Christianity. That and the fact that the pictures are from Iran. What do you think the major religion in Iran is? Sure as hell isnt christianity. At some point things stop being generalizations and start becoming a matter of statistics. I believe that this is one of those cases. And for the record, I'm agnostic.

You're an idiot.
Pick up your newspaper for today and read the cover of the stories in the metro section.

Stoning of people is banned in Iran.
honor raping is banned in Iran
(The above 2 are not even mentioned in the Quran)

& to answer your question about the stoning/honor raping .. almost all of the countries in the M.E are against stoning (SA is probably not).. ALL are against honor raping.

Thank you come again.

Any death penalty is cruel, but punishments such as stoning are beyond barbaric.

Cutting off someone's arm for theft is barbaric.

Do you know in Islam a man or women or both accused of having illegal sex (like they are not married or something like that ) 4 witnesses must approach the court and all of them must say that they have without any doubt have seen the man and woman being accused doing it and if one them is not sure then the case is false, and the witnesses are punished in case it was proven that they were lying.

The punishment for 'illegal sex' is barbaric and cruel.

Many 'Islamic Laws' (under strict interpretation) are cruel, outdated, and disgusting when taken into today's time. I suspect the same could be said of other religions as well. Fortunately not as many seem to take it so literally today in these other religions.
 
What is wrong with you people? Can you not see something like this without automatically jumping to "OMGWTF MUSLIMS!!"?? It makes me sick. Is it impossible for you to accept that people are people no matter where they are, and while there will always be a few religious extremists, most people (no matter what religion they belong to) are rational human beings.

I have seen some very radical christians who I would have to classify as insane. They just dont' get as much press as the radical muslims do.

Define Islamic Law. It is interpreted/created by countries. It is different for each nation because there is no real Islamic Law.

All Muslim nations have laws that are based on Islamic Law. Yet, all their laws are different. Why? Islamic Laws are just laws created/changed over and over during the course of time. They are not laws Allah-Prophet(s) told Muslims to follow.
