Whose bright idea was this?
I’d like to attribute it to sheer ignorance on the part of one or more persons at BBC Persian, which broadcasts to Iran.
Atzmon is a favorite at the Iranian state English-language channel Press TV. He published an article on the channel’s website claiming that Zionists control the anti-Israel BDS campaign.
If BBC Persian keeps broadcasting stuff like this, the Iranian regime won’t even bother to jam them anymore.
Update: George Galloway tweets that his “brother” Atzmon is teaching him to play the sax.
