US will officially recognise the Persian Gulf as either the "Arabian Gulf" or the "Gulf of Arabia."

[Starlord]

I happen to be one of them. Some things that will never change with me:

1. Gulf of Mexico
2. Persian Gulf
3. Squaw Peak (now known as Piestewa Peak (which I can support. Read her story))
4. Peking
5. Saigon (I notice some of the Vietnamese here do as well)
6. Mt. McKinley

There are more but you get the picture.

Some things are best left as is.

Florida is mini Australia for a reason, everything out there is to kill you, scare you or make your life uncomfortable, be it Mosquitos, Gecko's, Lizards, cockroaches, Alligators, or Angry Florida men/women.

He can name it Gulf of Idiot Orange Buffon; Iran will close it when war starts .

Big Beautiful and culturally ignorant!

It is all a distraction from humiliating defeat at the hands of the Houtties .

 

[Khorasan Black Flags]

Brother America [according to pezeshkian & zarif] is now changing name of Persian Gulf

When will these feeble-minded reformists wake up and leave politics for those who know some politics!!!!

Tell me about it. I had to spend an entire summer there once for a major business optimization project. Every afternoon it would rain right at 1400. Could set your watch by it.

No need to tell me about angry Florida women. I worked with a couple. One was bipolar. Seriously bipolar.

I should find the video of when we landed / took off from a glacier there.

Now I know how a ski jumper feels going off the 70M hill.

It's just to humiliate and needle Iran. Otherwise, there was no need to do this.

Trump probably considers this a 'bargaining chip' in the Iran negotiations.
The Iranians be like 'you OK, bro?'

What the heck is wrong with these people changing names?

Nothing. I still prefer silly bickering to actual wars.

We're likely at the point where this should find its way to the "Whatever" thread.
