#1 Gravitational pull of mars on the earth is less than 4 orders of magnitude less than the pull of the moon on the earth. About like a mosquito burping into the hurricane.

Even with some mysterious 'resonance' (I didn't follow what causes that), this theory doesn't really make a whole lot of sense to me.

#2 I haven't seen the numbers, but this is supposed to be an instance of a known effect. Although most of the time gravitational pulls from other planets pretty much cancel out over time, if every now and then there's an unbalanced tiny tweak (ie from Jupiter, famous for such things) at about the same point in the orbit, over time the orbit will change shape.

#3 Even with some mysterious 'resonance' (I didn't follow what causes that), this theory doesn't really make a whole lot of sense to me.

It's the buffeting effect from a gravity storm.
