Cruel dictator King Abdullah and his 2500 a$$hole princes along with other little puppets sheikdoms around the Persian Gulf which existed only 50 years or they were parts of the Persian Empires and they were raising goats and camels and living in tents before discovery of oil in the Persian Gulf by British colonialism who created these little monsters do any thing such as bribing foreign leaders and media from Iran's unused share of OIL & GAS revenue to get some protection so they can stay in power as well as steal Iran/Persia identities. Since these Arabs never had identities from their own. they have been stealing our Philosophers like Bu Ali Sina, Zachariah Razi, Abu Nasr Farabi, Persian horse, persian pomegranate, Persian 1001 Nights, Pars sea or Cyrus Sea [calling it Arabian sea], Bahrain and taking advantage of unpopular Islamic regime in Iran, they managed to dispatch their masters forces from all over the world to the Persian Gulf region. Now they are aggressively working to change the 7000 years historical LANDMARK of Persian Gulf the heart of 75 millions Persian/Iranians which is recognized internationally and registered by the United Nations as the Persian Gulf. These Arabs are shamefully claim 3 island of Tunbs and Bu Musa too and one of these days they will call Iran “Al-Iran" too. They are unaware of the facts that millions of brave Iranians/ Persians have parished so far to protect Iran/Persia, the great land of Cyrus of Great and the Persia Gulf through 7000 years of history and they will not compromise an inch of Iran/ Persia Territory, no matter what regime is running Iran. LONG LIVE PERSIAN GULF DEATH TO PAN ARABISM.

The Persian Gulf is a body of water situated south of Iran, separating the Persian Plateau from the Arabian Peninsula; to the Iranian nation, however, the story is dramatically different.


To the people of Iran, the Persian Gulf does not just signify a name or a geographical phenomenon - they consider the Persian Gulf to be representative of their ancient civilization and a manifestation of their ancestors' supremacy in the region.

Historically, the Persian Gulf was a cradle of ancient civilizations and a strategic passageway that connected the Far East to Europe. It has perpetually been at the center of global attention - of both merchants and rulers.

The earliest civilizations which were recorded on the peripheries of the Persian Gulf are from 5,000 years ago, when the kingdoms of Elam and Sumer emerged. There is evidence to indicate that Elamites, Sumerians, Assyrians and Babylonians traded with the maritime principalities along the southern coasts of the Persian Gulf. The result was a trade in precious commodities such as pearls, gold and silver.

According to Azizollah Bayat, an Iranian scholar and researcher, the history of sailing on the Persian Gulf can be dated to 700 BCE. The Assyrian king Sennacherib who ruled from 705 to 681 BCE was the first emperor to stage marine expeditions in the Persian Gulf.

During the Achaemenid dynasty, all of the coastlines and islands of the Persian Gulf were controlled by Iran. Persian sailors, under the powerful Achaemenids, cruised the Gulf without impediment.

The Persian Gulf is an important area geographically, so foreign powers always attempt to dominate it, whether culturally, financially or strategically. Due to a growing pan-Arabic sentiment over the past decades, the most recent efforts made to distort the identity of the Persian Gulf are relentless (yet futile) attempts to bring about a new name for the Persian Gulf, namely, the Arabian Gulf.

Those who intentionally or inadvertently employ the term "Arabian Gulf" instead of the historically accurate Persian Gulf are absolutely unable to cite any evidence. It is clear that the name which they've devised is a political device as opposed to a geographical name.

According to the 2007 United Nations Conference on the Standardization of Geographical Names, "Persian Gulf" is the only valid or credible name to refer to the body of water separating Iran from the Arabian Peninsula.

There are thousands, even millions of pages of hard evidence which reveal the historic veracity of the name Persian Gulf; however, those who have invented the term "Arabian Gulf" to replace the Persian Gulf are unable to put forward even a single page of evidence. On the other hand, however, there is strong evidence to show that the ultra-nationalist schemers in certain Arab countries are resorting to almost anything to achieve their goal, to damage the Iranian identity of the Persian Gulf.

Some scholars and researchers suggest that there is a growing identity crisis in the Arab world which leads their politicians to contemplate a new name for the world's third largest gulf. Perhaps such a geographic entity would help to provide their citizens with a sense of honor and superiority which cannot be achieved politically. Others, however, believe that the name-manufacturing project emanates from a desire for an implicit confrontation with Iran, the country which now is the regional superpower.

It is perceived that some Arab states can not tolerate such a status. By any method of measurement, however, this project has brought them nothing, and merely underscores their inability to honor their people through scientific, diplomatic, cultural or social achievement.

A brief look at historic documents, maps and atlases makes it obvious that the name Persian Gulf is one of the most verifiable, demonstrable and undeniable geographic designations one may encounter.

In his work Anabasis, the Greek historian-soldier Xenophon referred to the Persian Gulf as "Sinus Persicus" some 2430 years ago. The second century mathematician, astronomer, astrologer and poet Ptolemy also refers to the Persian Gulf as "Sinus Persicus" in his Geography.

In his 1580 map, the Belgian cartographer and geographer Abraham Ortels refers to Persian Gulf as "Sinus Persicus." Another Belgian cartographer, Gerardus Mercator, also refers to the Persian Gulf as "Sinus Persicus" in his 1595 map.

The 15th century German cartographer and cosmographer, Sebastian Munster uses the same Latin term to refer to Persian Gulf: "Sinus Persicus." In David Rumsey's online collection of ancient world maps, there's a map by the French cartographer Philippe Vandermaelen which portrays the Persian Gulf as "Golfe Persique."

In his splendid 1657 map, cartographer and geographer Nicholas Visscher uses the term "Sinus Persicus" to refer to the Persian Gulf.

A leading French mapmaker of the 17th century, Sir Gilles Robert de Vaugondy referred to the body of water as the Persian Gulf in his 1752 map of Arabia.

Even the Arab cartographers have sporadically used the term Persian Gulf to refer to the body of water separating Iran from the Arabian Peninsula. In a 1952 map, the Saudi Arabian Oil Company (ARAMCO) used the term "Persian Gulf." In his 1935 book in the Arabic language, Political History of Islam published by Hejazi Printing House, Cairo, the Egyptian scholar Dr Hassan Ibrahim Hassan refers to the Persian Gulf as the "Sea of Fars."

The documents and authenticated evidence demonstrate that the Persian Gulf is a name which has roots extending deep into the annals of history. Such a title cannot be replaced or falsified by politicians who have not even investigated a single topic of geography or history. To the nation of Iran, the Persian Gulf is something beyond a simple geographical name. For them, the Persian Gulf is identity, personality, honor and splendor.

We the Americans have not forgotten 9/11 tragedy which over 3000 innocent lives were perished. We know 17 of those hijackers were from Saudi Arabia. They were funded and supported by Saudi royal family, Osama Bin Laden is also from Saudi Arabia, and he was their hero before and after the attack most newborn boys were named Osama and they celebrated and danced in the streets just after 9/11 attack and chanted Islam’s victory over American great evil. The hijackers were funded by Saudi royal family. Right after the 9/11 attack most Saudi diplomats in America including Osama's relatives flew away from American soil while flights were banned for sometime. We found many traces of money transferred to those hijackers through Saudi officials, but Bush was good friend of royal family "he said once that he was part of the royal family" and his administration closed their eyes and let it go. We didn't over through Saudis brutal regime and instead Bush chose to attack Iraq which had nothing to do with American deaths and destructions. There were no NUKES, NO WMD, NO MISSLE FACTORY, ALL THOSE ACUSATIONS WERE BASED ON BIG LIES, and BIG LIES. Taliban was created and founded by Wahabi regime of Saudi Arabia as well and they have been armed and funded by Saudi Arabia, they are Wahabi Sunnis too. Iraqi insurgents were sonny Wahabi funded and supported by Saudi Arabia. Chechen rebels have been supported and armed by Saudi Arabia as well. The sources of all terrorists’ activities around the world nest in Saudi Arabian cage. The BIG OIL money which is for all Moslems good will and for people of Arabian being misused by this permanent kingdom of Ibn Saud and a$$hole princes. There are zillions of dollars of "BLOOD MONEY" in royal family's accounts around the world in the various banks or invested, they have their own PAREDISE all over the world. The regime should know the entire nation's wealth is not royal family's property. WAKE UP KING ABDULAH. Slavery is ok for this royal family in Saudi Arabia. US say nothing about it. Anybody is against the royal family or complains must beheaded quickly. Women have no rights at all. No freedom of speech and expression at all. No freedom of protest and media at all. No freedom of religion and people with other religions even non-Wahabi Muslims are not welcome in Saudi Arabia, either they are jailed or being beheaded. No Churches or synagogues or religious temples other than Wahabi Sunni Mosques allowed to be built. SAUDIS WHO RUNNING THE COUNTRY ARE BARBARIAN, THEY ARE THE WORSE DICTATORS ON THE FACE OF EARTH. I am wondering if our government gives a damn about all this. We just want OIL, OIL. WHERE ARE THE HUMAN RIGHTS ISSUES? WHERE IS AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL? WHEN DO THE UNITED NATIONS GOING TO MAKE SOME CHANGES IN THIS OPPRESSIVE REGEME. DOES THIS KINGDOM EVER EXPERIENCE ANY ELECTIONS? WHEN WILL THEY HAVE A REFERENDUM? TO STAY IN POWER REGIME BUYS OFF WESTERN POWERS. WHEN WILL THE ARABIAN PEOPLE ELECT THEIR OWN OFFICIALS AND TURN THE COUNTRY TO A DEMOCRACY LIKE IRAQ IN THE PERSIAN GULF REGION?
