Persia vs Arabs

One of Iran's top military commanders says Saudi Arabia's deployment of forces to quell protests by Shiite Muslims in Bahrain will spark unrest at home.

The semi-official Mehr news agency has quoted Gen. Hasan Firouzabadi, head of Iran's joint chiefs of staff, as saying Sunday that Saudis will rise up to oppose the deployment.

The uprising in Bahrain has strained relations between Shiite-majority Iran and other country's in the Gulf like Saudi Arabia that are mostly Sunni.AP
And this:
Iran's spy chief took his seat at a planned Cabinet meeting in Tehran and waited with the other ministers for Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The embittered president never showed up.

It was all another bit of political theater last week amid Iran's current _ and deeply complex _ power plays between the increasing confident Intelligence Minister Heidar Moslehi and the suddenly defensive Ahmadinejad, who refuses to accept Moslehi and has boycotted Cabinet sessions despite an order from the country's highest authority.AP
Nor did the Muslim Brothers help by stirring up trouble in Syria.
Persian foreign policy has changed from I hate Jews to Arabs are Stinky.

My question is, if Iran is recovering Persian pride,then they should restore their national name, Persia.
