The US doesn’t really care about journalists, they killed them in Iraq and Afghanistan, and their weapons have killed 215 journalists so far in Palestine. It was always about extracting tributes and concessions from Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia just doesn’t want to be turned into another Iraq or Libya or Syria or Palestine or any country that got on the bad side of the US. The US is known to hold a grudge, just look at the 67-year embargo on Cuba.

By Saudis do you mean all 25 million citizens or just the government?

Mission accomplished

Toyota is Japanese and Alqaeda had more attacks against Saudi Arabia than against the US.

It is not grammar/whatever. They are two very different countries, it is like confusing Britain and France because you think all Europeans are the same.

In Saudi Arabia you can’t be legally married before 18, so that’s effectively the age of consent.

Saudi Arabia wouldn’t dare do anything to Trump when it hosts and is surrounded with US bases and troops.

Qatar is not Saudi Arabia, in fact there was a huge feud and blockade between the two not too long ago. Do you think all Arabs are the same? They even speak different dialects with different vocabulary and phonology.

Shame Trump has a poor taste in food. Local cuisine is infinitely tastier and healthier. Okay maybe not much healthier.

Is he sewage-skeptic too?

People are downvoting this but it’s the truth.

A very good and valid reason to object. A lot of Arab governments and heads of state have no business existing, let alone being in power.

More like tributes so they aren’t turned into another Iraq or Syria or Yemen or Sudan or Libya

I have no objections. That’s what it is already called in Arabic.

Fun fact in Turkish it is called Gulf of Basra, after the city in Iraq.

Another fun fact: in the grand scheme of things, Persians and Iranians are relative late comers to the region during the Babylonian Era; and the Gulf already had previous Sumerian, Elamite and Akkadian names. Late is in relation to the history of the region but when compared with the history of other regions 3000 years ago is a long time ago. Turks are even later-comers only 1000 years ago. I say this because they can’t claim that they named it first.

Final fun fact: Persians don’t live on the north coast of the Gulf, not in significant numbers and not historically, only Arabs live on both coasts even on the Iranian side.

PS: I am sympathetic to Iran in their struggle against imperialism and Zionism, and believe they have a right to develop whatever means to defend themselves and deter aggression. This naming dispute though, is something else for me regardless of Trump’s intentions.

Using Linux in the university back in 2004 helped make the jump to Linux at home and I have been using it for 20 years now.
