More than a million people died in this same "boundary dispute" back in the
1980s.  It was called the Iran/Iraq War.

Gotta love this:

Iranian naval forces in the Gulf tried to capture an Australian Navy
boarding team but were vigorously repelled, the BBC has learned.

The incident took place before Iran successfully seized 15 British sailors
and Marines in March.

The lessons from the earlier attempt do not appear to have been applied in
time by British maritime patrols.

The 15 Britons were searching a cargo boat in the Gulf when they were
captured over a boundary dispute.
