(NYT) TEHRAN – Incensed over what it views as a Western-Arab plot, Iran has threatened to sue Google for deleting the name Persian Gulf from its online mapping service and leaving the body of water nameless. Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman, Ramin Mehmanparast, was quoted by the state-run news media as saying that Iran had already warned Google of possible legal action and “serious damages’ if the Persian Gulf was not identified as such.
