Hi there,

Most of you know persian gulf in the middle east. Very important gulf because of its oil and transportation of oil (60% of world's oil transports from here!).

So, it is very strategic point in the world. You know that the price of oil effects every thing, such as jewelery like gold, natural gas, gasoline and so on.

Do you know that before the attack of Arabs, all countries in the middle east have different languages (Egyptian, Syrian, Lidian, Persian ,etc.)? After the attack of Arabs all these languages disappear and only persian (Farsi) remains. Have you think about that why Arabs don't attack China and India? Because Persian culture made them calm! Because, Iranians are different from Arabs.

Now, Arab countries want to change the name of "Persian Gulf" into "Arabian Gulf"! If they do this the price of oil will increase up to 150 dollars. Do you know what's its' effect on the economy of countries?

Google said that if 1 million person sign the petition in the link below, it will delete the name of "Arabian Gulf" from his newer version of Google Earth.

Here is the link:

God be with you!

This is a kind of chain letter then l guess ?

May l suggest you learn a little more about why the price of oil rises (and falls) and then return with a more sensible idea....like growing banana's on Mars !

I agree, please answer the 'Why' oil will be $150 per barrel. After that, I would ask 'Why?' again (its an engineer thing). I would especially be curious to your answer now that we are in an era where $150 doesn't seem that impossible.
