I read something about shifting sands determining the borders ... anyone know whether there's a credible dispute?

The British asked for the GPS coordinates of the boat that the Iranians captured. The coordinates that they gave proved that the sailors were in Iraqi water. When that was proved to the Iranian military, they responded 2 days later with "different coordinates". Conveniently these ones showed that the boat would have been in Iran waters.

yes.
The Brits were attacked by the Iranians in Iraqi waters. Surprise, Surprise!!!
When will the liberals get it through their heads that we are in a global war against fascist Muslims? This is not Bush's war it is a war against the tyranny of religious oppression.
But the liberals won't get it until they can't sip lattes at Starbucks and they have to pray toward Mecca. Then magically they'll go what happened? You evil conservatives didn't protect us. It's all your fault.

Yes it has been established. Both by GPS and by independent corroboration [the ship they had just finished inspecting].
