No wonder Khomeini when he was in exile in France before returning to Iran, had reportedly said "BBC is my voice". BBC continuously put Khomeini on a pedestal & amplified his voice inside & outside Iran at the time. Meantime refusing to give to Shah's gov't equal opportunity.

Today, this is even more disappointing, but not surprising. Britain in recent months has reiterated that the official policy of the UK regarding Iran is not "regime change".

William Hague is the British Foreign Minister.
