Operational Update on Gideon's Chariots

Results of Operation Gideon's Chariots II:

  • The IDF has achieved operational control of about 75% of the Gaza Strip.
  • About 18.5 miles of terror tunnels have been destroyed.
  • Around 2,000 terrorists have been eliminated.
  • The "Morag" and "Magen Oz" corridors have been established which greatly reduces Hamas ability to maneuver and operate.

Hot Cases to watch part 3

Added a couple of new developments in Civil Rights Dept. v. Cathy's Creations case:

  • 02/11/25: California Court of Appeal reverses trial court's ruling saying that Cathy Miller did discriminate based on sexual orientation and remands the case to the lower courts for ruling. ref
  • 03/20/25: The Becket Fund appeals the Fifth Appellate District's ruling to the California Supreme Court. ref

Now that I have better resources, I can fill in a few missing dates in the development of this case.  The most recent ones have just been added.

Memo

11/3/25 9:09pm Monday
Really exhausted.  It's mostly because I am taking another stab at eliminating caffeine.  I'm just burned out from the energy rollercoaster and want off, so I decided to just gut it out with withdrawal today.

I also started another batch of jerky.  It'll take a few days and last a while.  It is about 33 lbs worth.  This time I am trying it with hot sauce on some and varying thicknesses.  I'll keep you posted.  It'll take a few days to make it all.

Hot water repair guy came today, but he has to order a part, so it may be a week or two before I get hot water again.  I'm gonna try and see how I can best utilize my whole home warranty while I have it.

A new project with the house has suddenly taken precedence with the breakdown of the water heater in the basement.  No hot water for the past two days.  This is actually a blessing in that I get to use advantage of American Home Shield while it is still active.  Some other benefits is that it causes me to rest and be patient a bit and I am also spending less money on hot water for a while.

My goal for this Friday, assuming I am not too tired, is to do at least something on the cement aspect of the house; specifically, the SW corner of the house.
