Israel Secretly Likes Iranian Nuts Better Than American Nuts
US envoy slams Israel over 'illegal importation of pistachios from Iran'
"The US and Israel are at odds about Iran’s “weapon”: Ten days ago, US Ambassador to Israel Richard H. Jones wrote a severe letter to Finance Minister Ronnie Bar-On, with copies sent to Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and two of his ministers.
In the letter, Jones accuses Israel of secretly trading with Iran and transferring foreign currency to the country, in direct violation of an Israeli law prohibiting trade with enemy states."
Ingrates.
“Israel is the world’s largest per capita consumer of pistachio nuts and therefore an important market – estimated at $20 million – for pistachio producers. Of the two largest producers of pistachios – the Unites States and Iran – only the US has duty free access to the Israeli market under our Free Trade Agreement…while Iran’s product is banned by Israel’s Trading with the Enemy Act."
"Every pistachio nut brings Iran another step closer to achieving nuclear capability."

Fake Newscasters Face Off
Which is selling more?
Is Amazon defaming 2 Pop Political Satirists? Or has it become perfectly mainstream to call political satirists fake newscasters now?
Hmm, seeing as how studies have shown college students are better informed when they watch the Daily Show rather than Fox I think saying "fake" newscaster is a lie.
I've heard that they are more addicted to Turkish Antep Pistachio Nuts from Turkey
