Iranian Sea instead of Oman Sea! (?)

Posted by Ali Sanaei under Geography, Iran, Middle East, Politics

I read an Article on an Iranian website suggesting to Iranians to use Iran Sea or Iranian Sea instead of the Oman Sea (Gulf) which is the correct term.

Persian Gulf, Hormoz, Oman Gulf

Their argument is that because the Arabian countries are trying to change the true historical name of the “Persian Gulf” to the fake name of “Arab (Arabian) Gulf” or sometimes “the Gulf”; therefore, Iranians should not be defensive, but offensive.

It is interesting that when you Google Arabian Gulf, all top top search results give Persian Gulf or explain that Arabian Gulf is not a correct phrase.

However, I think Persians (Iranians) shall not start calling Oman Sea Iranian Sea or anything in place of its original name. Wherever, whatever, however, altering the history and its facts with false expressions isn’t an acceptable humane act and will not last.
