Google Makes Gulf Nameless and Iran is Upset

Iran is not amused by Google's silence on naming the Gulf
Iran accuses Google of ‘fabricating lies’ for leaving Gulf nameless on its maps
"Iran has lashed out at yet another Internet giant, this time going after Google for what it sees as an egregious omission on Google Maps, AFP reports.
The body of water separating Iran from the Arabian peninsula has been a point of contention between Iran and the Gulf nation states, who choose to refer to it as the Arabian Gulf. Iran refers to it as the Persian Gulf.
Google has left itself out of the map argument by simply not calling it anything at all."
