Dear compatriots,

In one of his recent remarks, President Obama called the Persian Gulf as the Gulf.  Please sign the following petition asking him to call it the right way, the Persian Gulf.  Also, encourage all your friends all over the world to sign this petition 


It’s PERSIAN Gulf, Mr. President!
Darius the Great called it the Persian Gulf 2,500 years ago.
Herodotus called it the Persian Gulf,
Arab, Chinese, Russian, Spanish… scholars have called it the Persian Gulf,
Richard N. Frye, professor emeritus at Harvard, calls it the Persian Gulf,
The UN officially calls it the Persian Gulf,
And ALL Republican and Democrat presidents have always called it the Persian Gulf,
So, PLEASE do call it the Persian Gulf!
