I would guess that your friends are from afghanistan because they used to be part of iran and soroush the third sold them. and as for iran being persia, well when arabs invaded persia they renamed persia to iran because mohammed was againts the rejim, that is why its called iran today.

Not to try to rebut any of your statements because you are completely right but, i have a question, was the concept of "Iran" even in the persian language before the arab invasion and subsequent conquest of the persians in 641-642 AD? I have heard some of my Iranian (persian) friends get a little angry at being called iranian they much prefer persian. I was just wondering if "Iran" was something the arab's brought with them or if it was already there.

Bahrain was an absolutely wonderful place to live. I found that most everyone was courtious and polite even though i am american. Although, i tried to stay out of the black flag neighborhoods as much as possible. There is much to do there and i even found myself a bahraini girlfriend while i was there. Loved every minute i spent in that beautiful country. Watch the pearl roundabout though, i got stuck in it a couple times.
