Iran and Oman have historic tries, Sultan Qaboos owes his life and government to Iran as more than 100,000 Iranians served in Oman 1973-1978. As a young second Lt. RIO on a F-4E my first overseas posting was at Thumrait, one of the few Omani airbases capable of handling the new F-4E and RF-4C. Iranian airforce and special forces got their first major baptist of fire in Oman and fought very well securing the country"

What you say about this claim ?

Although it is true that Iran helped Oman in the war, but i highly doubt that the 100,000 claim is anywhere near the truth.

IRAF was there, true. Iranian spec ops were there, again true.

these are not the reason why we have normal relations with Oman. Oman has always been a cool-headed and diplomatic state.

they have good relations with a lot of countries who are arch nemesis of each other
