Iranians aren't Arabs and don't speak Arabic

Then what about the Arab Iranians in Khuzestan?

[-] Sanguine@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago

Yeah we know that but does the average American whose only use of the word Persian comes from rugs, coffee, and mahbe some sweets.

Excuse me I'll have you know I played Prince of Persia and its reboot.

Iranians have been fighting arabs since Elam and Sumaria were around.

I mean Japanese and Chinese also use the same script. But I wouldn't really say they're the same cultures...especially not to their face.
