Seems like fake to me, or just someone who wants to defame Islam by exaggerating something that has nothing to do with Islam. I could be wrong though but I really really doubt it.

Well to bring Wiki in on this (i know i know, but i cant find my encarta and britanica DVDs anywhere)

quote:

Some Shi'a observe Ashurah with a traditional flagellation ritual called zanjeer zani or zanjeer matam, involving the use of a zanjeer (a chain with a set of curved knives at the end).[1] The practice is not universal - many Shi'a enact the ritual by beating their chests symbolically. [2]

And following the two links in there we get to:
[1.] http://www.jafariyanews.com/2k5_news/feb/20ashur.htm

quote:

Thousands of mourners slit open their heads with swords, big knives and razor blades streaming their blood to signify their grief over the martyrdom of Al-Imam Al-Hussein (p) – the tragedy which caused the sky to rain blood and the earth to bleed - and thus paid rich homage to Al-Imam Al-Hussein (p) who sacrificed everything in defending Islam which is today under obligation to him.

quote:

Muslim children as young as six are still being allowed to beat themselves with knives on the end of chains. It is illegal, yet the police are not keen to prosecute.

So apparently the children do it to themselves, and the blood on the infants is probably their parents blood (or not, im not even going to pretend to understand these type of customs). Not so bad considering in some religions people put nails and stuff trough their skin and face to show their faith. And to think that i get upset if i get a papercut

It's a stupid Shia practice of "mourning" for Imam Hussain and his people (who got slaughtered by Yazid). Has nothing to do with Islam. Self-mutilation/self-inflicted pain is "haraam" (i.e. forbiden) in Islam. Get your facts right TRANCEEE.

Why the kids are not crying?

Looks 100% fake to me.
