In addition to communicating with the local Air Traffic Control facility, all
Aircraft in the Persian Gulf AOR are required to give the Iranian Air Defense
Radar (military) a ten minute 'heads up' if they will be transiting Iranian
airspace.

The following conversation was heard on the VHF Guard (emergency) frequency 121.5 MHz.



Iranian Air Defense Radar:  'Unknown aircraft you are in Iranian airspace. Identify yourself.'
Aircraft:  'This is a United States aircraft. I am in Iraqi airspace.'
Air Defense Radar:  'You are in Iranian airspace. If you do not depart our airspace
we will launch interceptor aircraft!'
Aircraft:  'This is a United States Marine Corps FA-18 fighter. Send 'em up, I'll wait.'
Air Defense Radar:  (total silence)

Iranian Air Defense requests information from unknown aircraft in English?

Nice "feel good" story.

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
      a liberal, oh fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
      acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!

The international language of aviation is English. Every pilot needs to know it and, as far as I know, all air traffic control speaks it.

As for the story, I do believe this one has been recycled for many years with slightly different locations, aircraft, and punchlines.

It's a joke. Too much analysis seems like a waste of time.

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.
