Like Moe said, they don't speak Arabic. Ever heard of a language called Farsi?
Some of them might even get a bit offended by calling them that

. They even hate it when people use "Arabian Gulf" instead of "Persian Gulf." I read somewhere that the National Geographic magazine used "Persian Gulf" but also put "Arabian Gulf" in parenthasis after that, so Iran banned the magazine there.
