The Peanut Gallery

Statements, comments and forecasts that have no substance, but just might turn out to be relevant. 


1.Did you know that congressmen are not liable to insider trading laws? Any congressman or woman can receive valuable information about something about to happen to a stock. This is why so many congressman enter service and leave it millionaires. The gift of legal insider information has rendered the majority of congressmen millionaires. Congressmen, in effect, ARE the rich and they are simply protecting themselves and guarding their insider trading millions.

2.DURBAN - The world is getting hotter, with 2011 one of the warmest years on record, a report by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said on Tuesday. Russia experienced the largest variation from average, with its northern parts seeing January to October temperatures about 4 degrees C higher in several places, it said. UN scientists said in a separate report this month an increase in heat waves is almost certain, while heavier rainfall, more floods, stronger cyclones, landslides and more intense droughts are likely across the globe this century as the Earth's climate warms.

3. Bret Stephens (WSJ) disagrees. "A funny thing happened on the way to the climate apocalypse. Namely, the financial apocalypse. The U.S., Russia, Japan, Canada and the EU have all but confirmed they won't be signing on to a new Kyoto. The Chinese and Indians won't make a move unless the West does. The notion that rich (or formerly rich) countries are going to ship $100 billion every year to the Micronesias of the world is risible, especially after they've spent it all on Greece." PG: We humbly admit being unqualified to evaluate. The only certainty is that the weather is changing, our kids are facing a massive debt challenge and in times like these it is good to remember there have always been times like these. 


4.The Iranian government calls it the Family Protection Bill, but activists call it the “Anti-Family Protection Bill.” It would give men the right to take a second wife without the permission of the first, and it would enshrine a man’s right to have an unlimited number of temporary marriages, which can last from 10 minutes to 99 years. Those arrangements come from Shariah law and have always existed in Iran, but the Family Protection Bill would make them official. PG: These guys are obsessed with spreading their seed, on earth and in heaven.


5.The Times reported on Wednesday that the mysterious explosion that rocked the city of Isfahan two days ago struck the uranium conversion facility located just outside Iran's third-largest city. According to the British newspaper, satellite images clearly show billowing smoke and destruction, despite Iran's claim that no such blast had taken place. The Times quoted Israeli intelligence officials as saying there was "no doubt" that the blast struck the nuclear facilities at Isfahan and that it was "no accident."


6.There is a large quantity of disinformation with regards to Iran and its nuclear facilities. Contrary  is no need for an Iragi type strike against the nuclear facilities in Iran. Unnoticed by the majority of the media, Israel, the US and the UK are waging a full scale war against Iran. This includes sanctions (which by the way are working) and cyber warfare in the form of the Stuxnet, and now the Duqu viruses. This is accompanied by a covert warfare machine (explosions and asassinations) which is wreaking havoc in the nuclear and missile facilities in Iran. Iran is also very aware that Israel leads the world with a technology known as EMP (Electromagnetic pulse). So if Adolf Ahminedejad thinks the Jews will go quietly, good luck with that.  


7.US Secretary of Defence, Leon Panetta is once again scolding Israel. According to Panetta it is Israel who is isolating itself in the region and it is up to the Israeli's to get with the program and reconcile differences with Turkey and Egypt. As for the so-called peace process with the Palestinians he said "Get to the damned table!" PG: Election time in the US, so Obama will talk about how dedicated he is to Israel's security, and send his poodle, Panetta, to prepare the groundwork for after the elections. Don't shoot the messenger, he is only doing as instructed by his boss.


8.PG: We cannot ignore the hypocrisy of the above statements. It was Panetta himself, as the then head of the CIA, who warned Obama of the consequences of throwing Mubarak under the bus and thus kick-starting the Islamic Spring. Since then, under the guise of democracy we now see the non-democratic Muslim Brotherhood winning elections in Tunisia, Morocco and Egypt. All of them aligned with Hamas. Definitely springtime for them. As for Abbas (the palestinian) to quote him at the UN "we will not recognize a Jewish State in Palestine, not now...not ever". So to compound the foreign policy mismanagement by this administration, they are now blaming Israel for the isolation. Pathetic.


9.And the poodle is now being followed by the other kowtowing ingrate, Hillary. She picked on several Jerusalem buses, used mainly by hareidi religious passengers who prefer separate seating for men and women as a matter of modesty. Although the courts have ruled that the seating is legal only if it is accepted by the passengers, and although the number bus lines involved represent a tiny fraction of Israel’s transportation system, Clinton pounced on the issue.
It's reminiscent of Rosa Parks," she said, referring to a black woman who refused to give up her seat to white passengers in the United States in the 1950s. PG: The tactic is becoming clearer. Get a life Hillary!
