What's the current Las Vegas line on this regime?
I have no idea what you are asking me.
I report all the major news developments om Iran daily.
Sometimes the news sometime contradicts other reports.
I simply point it out.
Iran for instance, produces conflicting reports all the time. But to choose not to show the contradictions would be misleading in and of itself.
I report, you decide what to make of it.
But all the sources are real.
I appreciate your work
I appreciate your work
Before you respond to that guy's comments look at his home page.
You do a fine job.
He is merely entitled to his opinion, whatever.
Freedom BUMP
That is, what are the Vegas odds (the line) against this regime staying in power and when will it be ousted. It's a rhetorical question, just trying to be funny way too late at night.
Thanks for keeping us informed.
Thanks for the warning, Iran. As if we didn't know.
I want to add my thanks this time, rather than merely lurking.
You're putting out more timely information than all of our ditzy MSM put together.
Keep up the good work.
Are these poor workers still alive? Here is further proof that Ahmadinejad is a nutcase. Workers not paid for an entire year, and yet how much of Iran's money goes to support terrorism, and support for the palestinians?! This man is more interested in setting up his longed for Armageddon, than he is in the welfare of his suffering people.
A friend of mine heard that their 5 day forecast was 3 days..
