The Islamic 'Solidarity' Games, will not take place in Iran this April, after yet another row amongst the Ummah. Not content with the violence and mayhem carried out in the name of Islam, they can't even pretend to like each other (no wonder they hate the rest of us so much).
The row this time features on whether the "Persian Gulf" should be called the "Arabian Gulf", with the medals and logo's referring to the "Persian Gulf", but all the Arab countries call it the "Arabian Gulf", so they have boycotted the games.
These games are meant to strengthen ties amongst Islamic countries have only been held once in 2005, in the Saudi city of Jeddah.
Iran has long campaigned to ensure the body of water between Iran and the Arabian peninsula is known as the Persian, not the Arabian, Gulf.
