We the people ask the federal government to Call on Congress to act on an issue:

Arabian Gulf is not and never been PERSIAN !!!

Created on September 26, 2019

Most regrettably, there is so much unfairness in the world. But there is one simple thing that can be done without much further ado - that thing is fair geographical names.

Many people refer to Arabian Gulf as Persian Gulf. Although, the actual length of the Arabian coastline is much greater than the Iranian. Historically speaking, the entire Gulf coastline did belong to Arab Caliphate and later to Oman. Nowadays it belongs to Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Oman and in particular to Pakistan and Iran. Obviously, the "Arabian" part of territorial waters is greater than the "Persian" part. Therefore, we demand for the formal recognition of the gulf's name as Arabian Gulf.

Such gesture will contribute to establishment of justice in a turbulent region.
