Very nice but why lashan hara to point it out?
It says that at the time of Rebbi Shimon bar Yochai the rainbow was not seen and it does not say that there wasn’t any? Explains the Kli Yakar that they did not look at it figuring that the tzadikim will protect them. According to this we can understand why is it lashan hara to say, I saw a rainbow even though one might want to bring people to do teshuva because he is saying that there are no tzadikim to protect us, so we must rely on Hashem to protect us through his love for us as above.
