Persian or Arabian Gulf? Iran, Saudi fight over name

[Roybot]

Its always been the Persian Gulf. Arabs wouldn't like it if Indians or Pakistanis started calling the Arabian sea as Indian Sea or Pakistani Sea.

According to Google ,Arabian sea is अरब सागर and Persian Gulf is अरब की खाड़ी

For me its showing Persian Gulf in English and Faras Ki Khadi in Hindi.

Its Persian Gulf, Khaleej e Faras in urdu books.

What Indian books says?

Faras ki khadi which translates to Gulf of Faras in English.

All i sense from your posts is that you people literally hate everyone be it Turkish, Arabs or the western world. And what you are trying to do is justify your hatred. I have a neutral perspective on this issue yet you want me to see things from your angle only which is absolutely absurd. A little flexibility goes a long way and self pride never helps accomplish anything.

Dude this is a forum. You voice your ideas and some people will challenge you on them. And what you get out of it is maybe a little different perspective on things. That's why people come here. If you only want to hear your own ideas repeated over and over again, then maybe an echo chamber is what you're looking for....

Interestingly it is called अरब की खाड़ी in Hindi(or Bay of Arabia)

That is wrong n false.

Are you sure talking about Persia Gulf and not Arabian Sea? Don't know Hindi names of these sea and rivers....

Claim was wrong, it's Faras ki khadi(Gulf of Faras) & Persian gulf in our history n geography books.

It's not about history it's about imposing our well on the persians like we always did and will continue to do.

there is no need for imposing if you don't want those oil wells we will get them gladly ,I wonder what you'll do without them?

I don't understand while there already is an Arabian gulf between KSA and Sudan why these people w
ants to rename another gulf and made confusion.

Red Sea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Historically, it was also known to western geographers as Mare Mecca (Sea of Mecca), and Sinus Arabicus (Gulf of Arabia).[7] Some ancient geographers called the Red Sea the Arabian Gulf[8] or Gulf of Arabia.[9][10]

Your tone has started to chnage to be less nuetral than what it used to be. So you can't endure taqiyya any longer as far as I can see. I am not sure by the way how can an aircraft (invented in 1903) will be a way to fake history. Also, no one is paying money to change the name of the Gulf. We use it offcially and that is it. Please show me who got money from us to accept using the name Arabian Gulf. You may not personally care, but your people do care. See below. This is a famous hotel in Tehran. Please see the level of pain and lack of confidence. At the hotel's gate they wrote "Persian Gulf".

Not only at the hotel names even the UN says the same:

I'm not going to post dozens of international maps from hundreds of years ago but 2 from Saudi Arabia :

Even the retarded Saudis and their neighboring banana states used the term Persian Gulf on their official maps until 60s but after Arab nationalism by Naser in Egypt they suddenly started making up nonsense to feed their people .

the Europeans called the red sea as arab gulf and not the persian gulf as they claim

These donkyies while ago when there was an article writen by an american he used the correct name of the persian gulf one of them said the one who wrote the article is iranian because of the persian gulf because he thinks that the gulf is arab and only the iranians use the name persian for it what a bunch of donkyies
and they suprise if somebody said the persian gulf hhhhhhhhh

In any conflict between Iran and Saudi, Pakistan will have to make up its mind. Politically it will be a sensitive issue.
Why?

1- Pakistan has a strategic military agreement with Saudi Arabia for its defence which means it is honour bound to come to KSA's help militarily in case it goes to war. No turning back.

2- Iran is Pakistan's second largest neighbour and while you can choose friends, neighbours are here to stay. Plus the new gas agreements put Pakistani government in a confusing position

3- The large shiite sunni sensitivities inside Pakistan is a major volcano. Any impatient decision and this will just explode into a dangerous situation.

The current environment will be a test for Pakistan as to how well it is able to succeed in negotiating a peace between the two powers of Middle East.

Just like I said there is dutch and french maps from the 16th century they dutch named the red sea as the arab gulf while the persian gulf is the same

That's I'd fact because they say iranians hate omar because he invaded their lands but in reality it was ali who planned the battle of nihavand and he call for the destruction of the persian cities so that it can't fascinate the arab bediuan tribes

Malik al ashtar which considered one of Ali's loyalist followers fought in both al yarmouk and al qadisiya and the iranians have many places and university named after him

I did not know that, but I hear both figures were involved also. Not that it matters, it was in the past.
