| Theres a Persian Gulf Website with a section on Dubai i thought id mention here. Its at http://www.thepersiangulf.org Shukran |
| Liban |
| One day people will wake up to the fact that its the Arabian Gulf and not Persian gulf. For one thing all the contries in the gulf peninsula are arabic and not persian. For a second thing, Persia no longer exists. It hasn't existed since the 1930s. It is Iran, so people better get with the times and also learn about the modern geopolitical landscape of the near east. Other than that, its a good site although some of the Dubai pictures seem to have been stolen from copyrighted sites... :P |
| laila k m |
| no one likes a know it all. |
| Liban |
| And nobody asked your opinion :twisted: |
| Ali-1974 |
It must be called the Persian Gulf for a reason - Have a look at an Atlas as it might be good for you - |
| Liban |
| I dont't know what the Atlases of the Islamic Republic say.... Maybe that Iran is the sole master of the gulf or whatever... But population of arabs his much more than that of the iranians in the area... Also Iran should get over itself... It lost against the Greeks of the faggot Alexander (yikes!) and it lost against Iraq and will lose again against the US if its not careful.... I support Iran and its quest for the nuke, and I like the Iranians I have met, but facts are facts.... |
| Ali-1974 |
| try this site - might educate you a little www.worldatlas.com or perhaps any ther Atlas you can find - does not have to be an Islamic one - by the way Dubai is not another city in Canada - so stop wasting everyone's time..... it is called Dubai Forum and not Canadian bored sad people wih nothing better to do forum.................. |
| Liban |
OK there Mr. Brainiac. 1) I looked at the site and they called it Arabian Peninsula and not Persian. So you just shafted yourself. http://worldatlas.com/webimage/countrys/asia/arabian.htm 2) Dubai is not in Canada? Really?? Like I didn't know... Thanks for clarifying things for me... :roll: 3) If you had a bit bigger brain you might have bothered to find out what Liban means. It means Lebanese ya sucka... I am Arab and proud. So why don't you go hide now... |
| Ali-1974 |
| 1) FOR THE TENTH TIME IT IS CALLED THE PERSIAN GULF ...... nothing to be proud of , it is just what it is still called for whatever reason, I am just stating the facts.... 2) I have nothing against Arabs or any other nationalities so you are safe- do not worry - Anyway have a good life, I hope you find what you looking for , try some Bangladeshi forums maybe some african ones too as it apears that you have all the time in the world - once you run out of forums try to get out a little and meet people - might do you good...... |
| Liban |
1) No its not 2) That not what I see from your post... making fun of Bangladeshi and African forums... Get a clue... Why don't you go back to Iran and become a mullah or something and launch idle threats against Israel and the USA, pretending to defend Palestine or something... |
| Ali-1974 |
| 1) http://worldatlas.com/webimage/countrys/me.htm |
| sniper420 |
| u both are talking about same shit! And yes dont make fun of bangladeshi or African forums Ali @ss! |
| Ali-1974 |
| You don;t have to read it - I give up on this forum - it is full of brainless, rude, arrogant people from Canada for some reason - they should change the name of the forum and call it SADCANADIANSFORUM.COM |
| BobbieMasoner |
No Ali, it's just Liban :roll: |
| Pumpkin Escobar |
| Here Here! Score one for Ali!!!! PHUCK CANADA!!!!!! :lol: (I didnt say anything about anyone specific, therefore not breaking the truce 8) Have a nice day) |
| sniper420 |
Well I was pissed cos u were criticizing and ridiculing other forums. If you were here in Canada u would be owned! And yes Liban have ur eyes checked, there is persian gult and arabian peninsula.. |
| Liban |
| If he was here in Canada he wouldn't survive long making fun of africans and indians... |
| Ali-1974 |
| I am getting really bored with this conversation guys - The Gulf is called the Persian Gulf whether you like it or not --- by the way sniper it is gulf and not GULT - maybe you are the one who should get their eyes checked out......... Once again I have nothing against Indian and African forums or people - It was just a suggestion....... |
| Liban |
Have you ever heard of a typo? Thats whats Sniper420 did and its not the end of the world.. Sheesh! :shock: I no longer feel like arguing with you because its like arguming with a mule... They will just get stubborn... If you have nothing against Indians/Pakistanis/Bangladeshi's or Africans then do not make any demeaning suggestions towards them. Besides you are Iranian, which isn't much better... |
| sniper420 |
For the LOVe of God if I make typing mistake should I have my eyes checked. U must be either a perfectionist or one sentence nerd. Reminds me of Glory. :cry: |
| laila k m |
| i'm bored so i thought i'd reply to every topic with the word HI |
| Liban |
You're dumb. |
| Nik |
| Lol apparently this persian gulf/arabian gulf topic is quite controversial elsewhere as well...all answers can be found here : http://arabian-gulf.info/ :P k whats in a name anyhow...but one things for sure, lots of things are named after erstwhile conditions....Siam is now Thailand, but we still have Siamese twins and Siamese cats...similarly the name India is derived from Indus, a river which now lies entirely in Pakistan...and Greenland is most decidedly not green...so its quite possible that the name Persian Gulf came about when Persia existed and was the most prominent in the region at the time the gulf was being named and hence the name persists till today...and well one end of the gulf is at Iran.... that said its equally valid that the Arabs refer to it as the Arabian gulf...people have different names for the same thing...the way many countries refer to themselves differently ie; Japan is Nippon, India is Bharat, Switzerland is Helvetia etc K just bein a busybody here guys...can't resist a good discussion...no intentions of gettin caught in the flame war :) Cheers, Nik |
| Nik |
| Ok a good link that intelligently dissects the issue (admittedly on an Iranian history site)...not a hokey one like I gave in the last message :P http://www.iranchamber.com/geography/articles/persian_gulf_history.php |
| sniper420 |
| Thanks for the link Nik, Mullahs will be happy ! :lol: |
| Liban |
This site was spoken about in bbc.co.uk website a while ago as part of an organized attempt by the Iranian government to maintain an archaic nomenclature of the gulf area... They are fighting a losing battle, hence the popping up of such sites. |
| Liban |
Well written, albite from a distincly Iranian bias. But in any event, the Iranians can call it what they want and they can try I convice the rest of the world that they are right, but we Arabs, the true owners of the Arabian Peninsula and general gulf area know what it is really called and thats the end of the story for us. PS - I bear no ill will towards Iran and I support it in many international issues since the fall of that tyrant of an American puppet shah. |
| Ali-1974 |
| Guys , looks like we have bored Laila and this is not good - I no longer care whether it is the Arabian or Persian Gulf :) I just want Laila to be happy :--) |
| Liban |
| Who cares about what Laila thinks or wants? Not me... Besides Ali, didn't you know that Laila is really an overweight shemale? You wanna me THAT happy? Go right ahead but count me out, she annoys me too much... |
| Ali-1974 |
| No reason to call people names if they annoy you !! people stop doing this normally when they are about 7-8 years old ..... besides I do not see any problems with overweight people nor shemales - they choose to lead a life they like and has nothing to do with you or me. Muslems should learn to also respect those who are differnt to them.... |
| Liban |
| I am happy for you that you see nothing wrong with shemales... But I couldn't care less what you think of sub humans.... And who the hell are you to tell us Muslims what we should do or think? Did you write the Quran? Are you God? No and No, so shuttup and don't you EVER tell us Muslims what to think or do.... |
| Pumpkin Escobar |
| Then stop doing it to everyone else....... |
| Ali-1974 |
| I did not write the Quran and I am not god but it appears that you think you are god here.... I will express my views when and where I like it and if you are not mature enough to handle it, well it is not my problem..... |
| Liban |
I heard a fly buzzing in here... |
| Liban |
I can handle it, but I don't care for your useless "views".... When you will rot in hell after you croak then express your views to the devil all you want... |
| Ali-1974 |
| whatever..... Liban ... I will rot in hell and you go to heaven for sure. |
| Liban |
I'll send you a postcard then :P |
| Liban |
| PS - Dude, learn how to chill.... People enjoy joking and thats what I enjoy too... Smile :D |
| Pumpkin Escobar |
| I be waiting for both of you :twisted: |
| Liban |
Will sniper be with you? 8) |
| Pumpkin Escobar |
| He will be on a leash by my throne, like the rest of you Non-Catholic heathens!!!!! :lol: |
| sniper420 |
That's true In hell, Pumpkin will be with sniper around a leash and Liban trying to do BDSM and sniper420 as an entertainment will snipe Pumpkin,Sniper and Liban as an entertainment for him and his houris. :lol: |
| Liban |
| What a vivid imagination... Do you spend your nights conjuring up such images? |
| sniper420 |
I dont have to spend even a second, it plain obvious! :lol: |
| Pumpkin Escobar |
| Obvious that you are a closet homo? |
| sniper420 |
still have trouble readin f*ggot? |
| Liban |
| Come out of the closet... Its stuffy in there and your mind is turning into jello... |
| Ali-1974 |
| Yes, come out of the closet - nothing to be ashamed of - we wil still talk to you (sometimes) :) |
| Lee |
| u Iranian first respect your arab neighbors’ rights and give the stolen islands to UAE back, then come an discuss to whom the Gulf belong by name. S..ck ppl. |
| Liban |
I am not Iranian ya habibi... Ana lubnani :) And I think that all the Islands that the Iranians stole from the UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, etc... As well as all other Arab lands stolen by Israelis, Turks, and Americans should return to us soon... Inshalla in my lifetime! |
| sniper420 |
When Iranians attacked those islands I read the Emiratis ran taking their asses. Kekeke. And yes I aint iranian I am Mongolain shaman. TATIM BOOOOOOOO :lol: |
| Liban |
| Hows Tehran these days sniper420? Did you suffer much when President Saddam Hussein's once powerful Iraqi Army bombed you? :evil: In all seriousness, Iran better clean up its act.. The only reason it professes to support the Palestinians and hate Israel is so the Arabs support its nuclear ambitions against the Americans and Jews. But if it loves the Palestinians and their fellow Arabs so much, why didn't it raise a finger to help Lebanon in 1982? or Palestine from 1987 to 1991 and again from 2001 onwards? Or Iraq today now that President Hussein is gone and ordinary Iraqis are dying by the American gun? Iran cares of one thing only and thats Iran. It will ally itself with anyone who can defend it. Iran doesn't care for Islam it cares for itself. Prove me wrong. |
| Lee |
| Hey Liban, I know u r not Iranian. I was talking to the .....ing sniper420 |
| Pumpkin Escobar |
| Isn't sooo much easier to blame your problems on others? :wink: |
| Liban |
Thats cool bro!! :) |
| Liban |
Not in this case because they really are to blame... If Israel was never allowed to exist then the Middle East and greater Arab world would look really different today... Things would be much better... |
| nezar33 |
| Guys just chill..take it easy..Iran will call it Persian Gulf no matter what Arab people Did..and the Arab will call it Arabian Gulf no matter what Iranian are going to do..so basically no one will change the other person opinion..so settle this case is much better :D |
| sniper420 |
Lee stop troubling moi else I will set something up that Uae authorities will deport u to Syria for having Al Qaeda links and the officers will molest u! It would be fun to record em and show them to ur Gf:lol: |
| sniper420 |
yeah right, Arabs would fight among themselves like Iraq with Kuwait and Arabs in Iraq dot have any right to throw the Kurdish ppl out cos Kurds were there long b4 the Arabs came and so Isreal has the right to exist so are Assyrians, Armenians and Kurds. |
| Liban |
| You are a moron... Go back to Iran and screw a mullah.... |
| sniper420 |
That explains alot why u hate Iran's mullah men harem.......... :lol: |
| Liban |
| You make no sense... I think your mother and father beat you once too many times... |
| sniper420 |
well u got beaten up by iranian mullah cos u abandoned him for ur bf.......... :lol: |
| Lee |
here is my nubmer 04 3902526. Show up your a s s. |
| Liban |
| Lee, habibi haddi a3sabak :) sniper420 wahad sharmout gahish... insa... Anyways, he is not in Dubai... He is in Canada living in the gay village of Toronto with his male lover... |
| sniper420 |
Another gay posting the numbers so gays like Liban and Pumpkin can hook up with Lee......... :lol: |
| Liban |
| If you had any guts you would call him up, tell him how to get to where you live, and allow him to kick the living crap out of you... If I ever cross paths with you that would be the first thing that I would do.... |
| Lee |
looooooooooooooooooooool… I wonder what would a SHARMOOT like him do if he is here in Dubai. He is lucky anyway coz my problem is I can’t even imagine talking to a gay! |
| Liban |
| There are alot of khawal in Dubai.... Alot of foreign business people and tourists are khawal and sniper420 would be able to satisfy them... But yeah, I agree with you... I live in Canada and there are alot of fruitball faggots and I stay far far away from them... When I had my own business many years ago, this gay f%$k came to do an interview with me for a sales position and I was so annoyed that I got a few of my employees together, we kicked him out of the store and then beat the living piss out of him on the street.... One of my employees was also a policeman :) |
| BobbieMasoner |
right. "One of my employees was also a policeman" If he was a policeman, why was he working for you? :roll: |
| sniper420 |
That shows who was the gay! In reality the policeman kicked Liban. And @ss Lee u are talking to the GAY -LIBAN. Well u posted ur number here and Liban wil call u on nights and u can have wet dreams......... :lol: |
| Liban |
Extra money.... He would work during his time-off periods and weekends... Dude had a family to feed and his wife doesn't work... |
| Liban |
You make no sense... How hard did your mother drop you on your head when you were a baby?? |
| sniper420 |
My mom didnt drop me I came down like superman. Well ur mom was so sick of yah that she gave u away to the policeman who bought u up and u made him an employee! So sick retard! :x |
| Liban |
Hmmm... You are so retarded. You have opened up the door for so many insults (towards your mother and yourself) right now and I will not bother. Its too easy. :roll: |
| Lee |
| Yah Liban really don’t give s h i t to that Super-Hypo and his mother. Let’s stop spoiling moods in this forum. |
| Liban |
| I agree... f%$k that stupid c0cksucker sniper420.... |
| sniper420 |
Well u guys are morons no doubt in it. Liban congrats u got new partner. :lol: |
| kayvee |
| I consider my self to be above any of these petty, waste-of-a-time-arguements .... But when i see BullS*** i gota call it......... First of all i dont know why its called the Persian Gulf......it just is.....im sure there is a reason but i dont it ......... Second.......the arguements on why it should be called the Arabian Gulf were: 1)coz there are more arabs than persians.... 2)Persia lost to Alexander 3)it should watch itself coz usa will whoop its ass.... I mean cone onnnnn guyyys peace |
| evanjerik |
| It doesn't really matter whether its Persian or Arabian Gulf. One thing for sure its a gulf. Calling it Persian or Arabian depends on one's perspective. What is funny is that people are arguing whether its Persian or Arabian but look who has control and is dominating it? Just asking... :wink: |
| kayvee |
| Hey there.... Great point....... personally i think people care too much about these things...... I just wanted to add some humor to it......and show that its not that big a deal...... peace! |
| Pumpkin Escobar |
| It's all desert anyway, we aint talkin about Maimi Beach or something :wink: |
| Liban |
| You changed your avatar.... Hehe... Me likes it much :P Thank God its not like Miami beach or else we will have all kinds of Sniper420s aka Jackpot77s running around loose here and would turn the name Persian/Arabian Gulf into the Homo Gulf (sniper's/jackpot's dream).... |
| Pumpkin Escobar |
| He would be the guy in the pink hotpants and Mardi Gras beads harrasing all the tourist! |
| Liban |
| As long as he doesn't try to flash us his tits we should be fine 8) |

"Sniper gone wild"? that's a DVD box-set few would be worth investing in |

| samy_solo |
Dear Liban, You are absolutely correct, there is no such thing as the "Persian Gulf". I believed that this dispute has been taken to the United Nations who ruled that the appropriate name is the "Arabian Gulf". Some people in this forum think that all it takes to justify the name "Persian Gulf' is to open an Atlas. Well, I have some an old Atlas that still refers to Zimbabwe as "Rhodesia" and "Upper Volta", etc... The vast majority of the countries on the Gulf are Arab. It is true that our Iranian brothers strongly believe that this area should be called "Persian Gulf" due to past cultural exchanges (and other matters). But does this notion give the Arab world the right to call Iran an Arab country for delivering to them the word of God (Islam) ??? Absolutely Not ! |
| MaaaD |
| Sometimes people , and even goverments, can be so immature .. who gives a flying f*&"ck what u call it .. let the persians call it persian gulf, and the arabs call it arabian gulf .. and the rest of the world can call it the oil gulf .. |
| sniper420 |
since when did liban become dear to u? :lol: |
| sniper420 |
let's bomb it and let there be no gulf. |
| samy_solo |
Lol, well Sniper its just politeness ! |

| Certainly, there are other bodies of water with different names. Take, for example, the body of water between Korea and Japan. The Japanese call it the Sea of Japan ("Nihonkai") while the Koreans call it the East Sea ("Donghae"). Even the British and the French, who are both in the EU, can't agree on a common name for the English Channel/La Manche.... |

1) Kurds have got no historical rights in Iraq .. Iraq was a homeland for Semites .. that includes Babylonians, Akkad, Assyrian, and Kildan. I dont know if you would understand this info. but Arabs originated from BABYLON! Since their great grand father before moving toward Yemen, he was born in Babel and he had children there, and from those children Abrahim the prophet was. Arabs came out from Abrahim and Yuktan who both are originaly from Babylon (and Ur) .. and that dates back to thousands of years back (before approx 5000 Years ago). Even in the era when the Assyrians ruled, the people who exitsed there were just like one family .. although the term was not used but the people existed! Otherwise how would you describe the situation of Abrahim who existed in the era of the Babylonian king Nemrod! As well as the King SanatroQ who was the first king to name himself .."The king of Arabs" .. he was in Iraq. There are not even one single Kurdish ruins in North Iraq .. all you can find are Semite (Assyrians) ruins .. and the Assyrians have the right to own the land .. and not the Kurds who massacred our Assyrian brothers. 2) The original people of Palestine are Canaanites (Semites and are also a branch of ancient tribes that meet with Arabs in the same family tree, and they are considered as full Arabs since they already chosed the Arabic langauge). Those people are now in Palestine and Lebanon and they are the real owners of the land of Palestine (it was called land of Caanan in the past) .. and the Jews have got NO historical rights at all. In fact through out the history of Palestine that extends to more than 7000 years, the jews only ruled it for 70 years ONLY! Where as it was ALWAYS Semite/Canaanite/Arab! 3) Armenians are from Armenia! They found a warm safe and peacfull atmosphere between the Arabs after running away from Turks who massacred them. They have got NO rights in the Arab World .. they just lived here with us long time ago and we respect them as our brothers. Do your calculations right next time please . |
| symmetric |
| With all due respect to my Arab friends... But it is the [color=green] The Persian Gulf [/color] Was, is, and will always be. The first person to change the name was the ex-Iraqi president Aref. A nationalistic Arabist who later on many other Arabs tracked him like Michile Aflaq (the Christian Arab fellow from Lebanon who established the Baath party), and then so did Saddam Hussien. But the whole world call it Persian Gulf. And its way too offensive to the Persians if anybody would call it any other name than its original name. I am local from Dubai .. Myy ancesstors existed before MANY other Arabs who came over later. But im from Persian origins .. and I love Arabs as much as I love my Persian origin. But a fact remains a fact. It has been the Persian Gulf since like forever. Arabs have got the "Arabian Peninsula", "Gulf of Oma", .. and the "Arabian Sea" .. what else do they want !? Let us be fair... How would Arabs feel like if all the world decided to call Jerusalem as a Jewish city..?? Its TOO offensive to Arabs and against the historical facts. The case is just the same for me/us as Persians, we wont accept for our rights to be stolen. These are my two cents... Salam Peace |
