Sinus Persicus

Some Arab countries around Persian Gulf recently claimed Persian Gulf as Arabian because of some claims such as tourists' quotations or maybe rising of Arabs' nationality or ethnic sentiments.
Seemingly some provocations by westerners to find another way to enforce Iran's policy-makers to step back of its nuclear program or other anti-west policies can be seemed as main object of this plot.
Historically no one can deny many resources therein one can see the real name of the gulf. Historians as Herodotus and geographers as Strabo called it as Sinus Persicus for the great ancient empires such as Akaemenids and Sassanids derived from one of Indo-European groups lived there by the name of Pers.
The gulf consists of the waters come from many Iranian rivers and two main rivers from Iraq, Tigris and Euphrates. Not even one river pours from southern part of the gulf. Geographically Iran has natural dominant on the region. Most of coastlines from Arvand River to Hormoz strait (1000 km), most of islands, deepest parts of the gulf belong to Iran. According to international navigation laws, water borders for each country consists of 12 km of the last part of the coastline, so greater part of the strait lay in Iran's territory , but Iran 's government allow most of ships to pass Hormoz peacefully.
No reason can be imagined but American and British plot to put Iran and other Muslim countries in opposition state to legitimize their presence in Persian Gulf as the most strategic point on earth. As Americans lost their status after 1979 Islamic revolution in Iran and its effects on people of the region, they strove for several times to find political way to stay in the region.
In 1991 G.H. Bush filled up the region with so many battleships and soldiers to defend Kuwait against Saddam's invasion that was actually under American green light. During 2003 his son packed the Persian Gulf like his father to remove Saddam, who was remained by Bush (the senior) to continue the plot later, for so-called companionship in S/11 attacks with Bin Laden and to have chemical weapons. This is one serial of their series to represent for their rights to be in the region. The American plot policy can be imagined as a diamond on every dimension they see one of their political, economical, cultural conspiracies to glow over the region. They sometimes hold this diamond somehow in every part of region you see one aspect of their hegemony, in one part economical, another part cultural and etc.
It does not seem so important for some Arab countries such as UAE, Qatar, Bahrain or Kuwait by what name this gulf should be called, for they think just economically but when the rush of western tourists travel these countries and the comparison they make between Iran on one side and all these Arabs on the other side, force Arabs to think about issue. Arab governors do not venture to represent their claims overtly but when they are backed by Americans or other westerners become bold.
One of Arabs' reason for naming the gulf as Arabian is tourists' quotations when they see all these Arabian countries lay on the southern coasts of the gulf, so they deplore these geographically diminutive but economically important countries for being oppressed by Iran. It can be deemed as one of benefits of tourism for these countries that if Iranian statesmen could know and take its benefit for themselves by solving some problems in the way of tourism in Iran they would have benefited many of its economical and political and fruitful consequences.
Another Arabs' reasoning is based of what some historians like Herodotus calling Arabian Gulf (Sinus Arabicus) in their accounts. Herodotus calls the gulf in the south of Persia as Persicus but the Red sea as Sinus Arabicus for then there was no canal between Red sea and Mediterranean Sea (Mare Internum) and it was a narrow gulf sandwiched by Arabian Peninsula and Africa. (see ancient map of Iran at the time Akaemenids(Perses), Seleucids, Ashkanids( Parthian), Sassanids).He also calls Oman Sea as Erythraeum Mare.
Unfortunately the way some organizations act today at the global level, their fame are deemed for scientific methods , is against of what their responsibility for humanity and truth obligate and seems dangerous for the future of scientific research. As "Google" and "National Geographic Society" as two scientifically reliable organizations whom are played by political tendencies and publish unreliable maps, can they be trustful for future researchers? I don’t think so.

Are Taliban & Al Qaeda reality of Islam?

What today are called and shown in the name of Islam and being attacked and provoked by Zionist leaders of global Medias are parts of a conspiracy on Islam and Muslims. The attack on Quran and prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him and his family) for some words and beliefs in Quran like "Jihad" that are believed as symptom of brutality and barbarism of Islam and Muslims are organized plots like the coils of a chain since S11 and before that to discredit this heavenly religion. Some Islamic rites and customs are being symbolized as signs of terrorism. All of these are regrettable for a real believer Muslim who likes to introduce his religion to others and enlighten them.
The radicalism in every society and places seems to be seen as troublesome. The prophet Mohammad advised his followers by this "The best in everything is the mild".
Islam never grew if it was a harsh belief. If you study in history books that Muslims could conquest most of the empires and territories in less than a century, do you think it was just by sword? No, don’t make mistake. Would Arab Muslims be harsh and oppressing, never Islam could develop in Iran because Iranians proved that they would never let their foes to rule them so long time or force them to accept their beliefs. Never. (See history of Iran during Seleucids and Mongols). It was Islam that solved the problem for conquerors for it was so charming by its pure principles that defeated nations after understanding its reality accepted it as their lost belief. No matter about race, attention to equality and fraternity among Muslims, the prophet's best ethic as well as his kindness when he was at the top were parts of causes for Islam to overcome other beliefs in ancient territory of religions and civilizations.
Many believed in Islam for prophet's ethic. God said in Quran to his prophet that if he would lack his tolerance and patience against people, many of his followers will leave him alone and not believe in. The simplicity is one of way to grow and develop something as complexity leads many difficulties. Some prophet's foes attracted him for his simple life and custom. As a leader, his daughter married in a very simple ceremony and even granted a poor her best cloth as prophet, himself, forgave his annoyers during he was at the top and could revenge.
After demise of prophet Muhammad and some misleading actions by some of his successors, some radical groups such as "Khawarej"- outgoers- they who went out of Imam Ali's camp because they opposed his decision on making peace treaty with Muavieh in 658 A.D. – formed some communities in far east of Iran- today in Afghanistan and Pakistan – for being prosecuted by Umayyad and Abbasid dynasties because of their cults. After that they were issued throughout Islamic territories even Arabian Peninsula poisoned Islamic thoughts by their radical views.
Another radical group that during some recent centuries developed in Saudi Arabia is Wahhabiit- a very radical and close-minded creatures whose better name can be "Modern Vandals". They attacked Shiit religious places such as Karbala , Najaf ,Samarra during recent centuries and ruined the tombs of four Imams of shiits on their ridiculous beliefs. Usama Bin Laden, as leader of Al-Qaeda is a radical wahhabi who formed suicide attacks in S11 ,2001. They killed thousands of shiits in Afghanistan during the Taliban rulers, Mullah Umar.
I think every American who seeks American foreign policy agrees that Taliban formed and was backed by U.S government during occupation of Afghanistan by Soviet Union in 1980s to defend against expansion of Communism. During 1990s Taliban's genocidal actions the U.S government kept silence because it would comply their desires to see muslim combatant entangled in civil war but as the knife turned toward its handle in S11 , Americans shouted in pain and cries that they were terrorist.
Now the silly actions of such radical groups are used to address the Americans' right to present in the Persian Gulf region to prevent these groups' so-called threats. The Americans and Europeans who fear the growth of Islam in America and Europe strive to attribute all these to Islam and Muslims in general.
