Some emails can be most touching or humerous. What do you think of this one?

friends from all over tend to pass on emails they think are good for sharing. Some emails can be so touching, encouraging and even hilarious. I received one lately which showed a little 8yr old boy in Iran getting his hand crushed by the wheel of a vehicle because he had stolen some bread. In the email the 8yr old boy looked more like a 5yr old and as he lay there waiting on his punishment a grown man held his hand in place for the vehicle to run over it. In the photos you could see the wheel of the vehicle going over the child's hand and the child crying in pain. It was awful and unbelievable. I kept wondering if it is actually true or if it was computer generated. My web checks seems to indicate more that it was infact a staged event. Such emails build sensationalism and hard feelings against others and really should not be generated and passed around. It was horrible. What is the most upsetting or hilarious mail you have received and what is your view on emails such as this one which may not be true but graphic and upsetting? Here's a link to the email. socalpersian.blogspot.com/2006/12/iran-8-year-old-caught-stealing-bread.html - 72k -
