What countries do not border Iraq?
the question anticipates a correct answer of oman
since turkey Iraq & Pakistan all share well known land borders with Iran
while oman is separated from Iran by the strait of hormuz
yet oman just as surely shares a border with Iran as do the other 3
the fact that it is a sea border rather than a land border doesnt make it any less of a border than if it were a land border
for it has been fully agreed since 1974
indeed Iraq & Pakistan should also have sea borders with Iran
but these remain only hypothetical blank spaces since they are not agreed
& of the 4 only turkey has not even the possibility of a sea border with Iran
so the answer should rather be hedged as follows
since oman does not border Iran on land
& turkey does not do so on the sea
the one country that does not border Iran at all
would have to be either turman or okey

Why did Libya change its flag?
First, we should note that the all-green flag has been retired since the fall of Gadhafi and replaced with the Senussi Standard, which flew over Tripoli during the reign of King Idris I of Libya (chief of the Senussi Muslim Order).
However, the reasons that Gadhafi chose to make the flag green are several. Green is the traditional color of Islam and represents growth and flourishing, given the rarity of seeing green in a desert-country like Libya. The color also represents Gadhafi's the Green Book, a 1975 collection of Gadhafi's personal views on everything from science to history and which rarely features facts of any substance. The Green Book was required instruction in Libya while Gadhafi was in power.
