The 2500 years of history cannot be denied. It is Persian Gulf and it will be for ever. Arab Mullahs governing Iran now cannot change the name of the Gulf.

Your comment shows who is the true terrorist! The abbreviation of your name shows how much you care and respect for your own family name! Let alone for history, or if you even know what history means. Your writing clearly describes you well "B.J.W." see how you care for your new name,of course beside all the other names you called yourself!!!

The real and anciant name is persian gulf an it would be forever , i want to say to arab brothers dont try to lie to the history because it is full of shame
It is ARBIAN GULF FOREVER. If you want to chang it topersian gulf, then please use persian secripts NOT ARABIC SCRIPTS. I don't know how these people are thinking. In the past, we weeped up their savage civilsiation and built up NEW civilsiation for them whith teaching them an ARABIC ALPHABATIC and NUMBER. Now a days, I think they need to be re-formated by somone like the great Khaliphat OMAR. ARAB
if you want to invent a name for this gulf doesnt matter you can do it but you couldnt change the reality and history,inventing a new name is liying to your self and your ancestores. i sugest you to do a research about the real name and im sure you will get your answer. you told us that we have to chang our name im telling you we love our anme such as hossein , ali because they are islamic name and islam is our religon and we love it and its not belong only to you.
not only the gulf is persian but also bahrain is a county of Iran and sooner or later we will get it back without bleeding .
ONLY PERSIAN GULF. YOU CAN SEE WIKIPEDIA TO deal with this problem. however I think Arabs won't change their idea, because they aren't truthful actually.
