Genesis cover

On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.

 

The print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.


The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
 

"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News


Let’s take a look at the college teachers and students who support Hamas and the torture and murder of little children

Hamas vs Israel
Apparently too many college students and teachers
support Hamas despite these very obvious facts.

Fight! Fight! Fight! At the website Campus Reform one of its reporters, Michael Duke, has been doing magnificent work in identifying in detail college by college the students and professors who rioted this spring on numerous university campuses in support of the terrorist organization Hamas and its October 7, 2023 massacre of more than 1200 people, including the rape, torture, and murder of men, women, children, and babies.

I thought it was time to do the public a service and provide a link to all of Duke’s reports, so that future employees will have a handy place to go to find out whether the future college prospect before them thinks it is acceptable to kill babies in support of an ideology. Duke’s work has only begun, but it appears he is trying to identify every single pro-Hamas rioter this year who was arrested. His list so far:

Several things stand out immediately from this list. First, except for Florida State, in every single protest the mob occupying buildings and facilities illegally were aided by faculty and alumni, who were then arrested with the rioters when they would not obey police orders to disperse. Based on this reality, students and parents looking for a college to attend should seriously reconsider going to any of these schools.

Second, it is not clear how many of these arrested individuals will ever be prosecuted, nor whether these universities are really serious about clamping down on these kinds of violent mob actions. At Indiana all charges were dropped by the local prosecutor. At Wisconsin-Madison charges were dropped and reduced for one of the seventeen students charged. At Indiana, charges have been dropped on all but one of the arrested students, with that one student’s charge reduced to almost nothing. Meanwhile, the final bits of the pro-Hamas encampment there was finally removed only last week, despite the arrests in April. At Dartmouth charges have been dropped against 28 of the 89 arrested, and there is legal action to get the university to drop the rest of its charges as well.

Though not yet on Duke’s list above, at Harvard the university has already caved and dropped all charges against the five students it had suspended for their actions in the spring riots.

I could find little additional information about those arrested and their subsequent prosecution at the other colleges.

Though for decades leftist rioters such as these have routinely been released and all charges dropped, it appears that this time the authorities in many locations are not doing this — despite the actions listed above — and are actually prosecuting some of these people. If so, this is a very good sign. The First Amendment protects their right to demonstrate and express their opinions. It does not allow them to riot, trespass, and damage property. Nor does it allow them to take possession of campus property and impose a “no Jews allowed” rule, as some of these anti-Semites did.

Whether or not these rioters are prosecuted, however, it remains the right of future employers to consider this history in determining whether these people would make good employees. I provide this information for the benefit of those employers.

The support of my readers through the years has given me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Four years ago, just before the 2020 election I wrote that Joe Biden's mental health was suspect. Only in the past two weeks has the mainstream media decided to recognize that basic fact.

 

Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Even today NASA and Congress refuses to recognize this reality.

 

In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.

 

Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.

    I think support for things are theoretical in people’s eyes.

    Before Gov Abbott used busing to show weak borders are everyone’s problem–the idea of open borders sounded pretty good to some.

    I’d like to think the same here.

  • GeorgeC

    That list leaves out a big one: The taking of civilian hostages. Bean a war crime since long before WWI.
    There was effort to convict some of the German military which is when the we were just following orders defense was used.

  • Steve White

    The list (thank you for putting the links here) demonstrates the power of local prosecutors. Mr. Soros had an insight there, and if the Republicans weren’t also known as the “Stupid Party” they would work to get these offices back.

  • BLSinSC

    Hmmm, wonder why those FL State professors/administrators stayed out of the fray??? I have a good idea it might just have something to do with Governor DeSantis!!!

    Contrast the DESTRUCTIVE protests in SUPPORT of TERRORISTS vs people simply walking through Our CAPITOL and being ESCORTED by CAPITOL Police and POLITELY LEAVING when told to do so!! Which group has been ruthlessly persecuted and imprisoned?? Don’t tell me we do NOT have a TWO-TIERED “justice” system!

    This guy knows about China in the first person and could be making relevant comments on the country and its leadership.

    These people’s logic is simple and airtight
    1) Israel is a friend of the US
    2) The US is inherently evil and is the cause of all the suffering in the world
    3) Therefore Israel is evil and must be eradicated

    Col Beausabre–
    Good stuff.

    Can you unravel this pretzel for me?

    I was told Dick Cheney was Darth Vader, and Bush the Younger was Hitler.
    Then I was told obama was Jesus Christ.
    Now I’m told Trump is Hitler, and Trump loves Putin.
    So, why don’t these assorted jew-haters support Trump?

  • Even better, Wayne:

    A customer comes in, she is a Trump hater, she tells me very excitedly:

    “Oh, yeah Trumps going to get beat by Kamala. We have a real person running for president now!”.

    I was flabbergasted. I asked: Kamala is a real person? This is really how they think.

    She left with a big smile on her face.

    If the Democrats have a “real person” running now. What did they have previously?

    And I point out my observation and displeasure with the Republicans for accommodating the Democrat party and their desperate need to remove Biden from the race:

    WHY THE BAD CHESS? https://www.sigma3ioc.com/post/the-debate-why-the-bad-chess

    Joe Biden should still be the candidate representing the Democrat party in the 2024 presidential race. But he is not, and that did not happen without thought. Trust none of them.

    And of course, there is absolutely nothing real about Kamala that I can detect. The Democrats just need the facade.

    I will try to get her to sit down and explain herself and her thinking to me one on one.

    Should be an interesting conversation.
