Iranian-Americans Angry at Arab-bribed National Geographic
Note:
Persian Gulf Island Dispute
It is entirely possible the United States, an ally of the UAE, is the hidden force behind the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (PGCC) request that the European Union mediate the issue of the disputed islands between Iran and the UAE in an attempt to create an unhealthy political climate. The involvement of the EU has the potential to ignite an international crisis and divide the Arabs. This looks like the United States is attempting to escalate the territorial dispute as a means to diminish Iran.
The dispute over the islands is unresolved and I am not sure who legally owns them; they are, however, full of oil reserves and their strategic position could allow a country to influence the Gulf's valuable shipping lane, or even to close off the Gulf all together.

Dec 2, 2004, 14:18
Iranian-Americans in the United States are scheduled to meet with the President and other senior executives of arab-bribed National Geographic in Washington on December the 6th to voice their anger at the false alternative of the arabian gulf the American institute has offered for the Persian Gulf.
In a rapid two-pronged campaign, many Iranian-American organizations have put intense pressure on National Geographic for its misnaming of the Persian Gulf in its recent World Atlas.
Over 10,000 individual letters have been sent by Iranians protesting the publication's in correct references to the Persian Gulf, and have undersigned a petition with over 65,000(and counting) signatures.
Meanwhile in Tehran the city's annual international book fair banned the National Geographic from taking part in the next edition of the event.
In Southern Iran, hundreds of university students held a gathering to condemn the arab-bribed National Geographic's move.

Background:
The UAE and Iran continue to dispute the ownership of three islands, Abu Musa and the Greater and Lesser Tunb Islands, which are strategically located in the Strait of Hormuz.
All three islands were effectively occupied by Iranian troops in 1992. The Mubarak field, which is located six miles off Abu Musa, has been producing oil and associated natural gas since 1974. In 1995, the Iranian Foreign Ministry claimed that the islands are "an inseparable part of Iran." Iran rejected a 1996 proposal by the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) for the dispute to be resolved by the International Court of Justice, an option supported by the UAE. In early 1996, Iran took further moves to strengthen its hold on the disputed islands. These actions included starting up a power plant on Greater Tunb, opening an airport on Abu Musa, and announcing plans for construction of a new port on Abu Musa. In the dispute, the UAE has received strong support from the GCC, the United Nations, and the United States. Although Iran remains a continuing concern for officials in Abu Dhabi, they have chosen not to escalate the territorial dispute. The two governments have recently held high-level discussions about the territorial dispute. Iran is one of Dubai’s major trading partners, accounting for 20% to 30% of Dubai’s business.
