did seven years in an embassy and five in a cell for less than what KiriPedia publishes every day.
When they come for us, they will come with a bag over the head, a ship with no flag, and a destination on no chart. The website goes down. The archive vanishes. History depends on your rectal cavity.
The whole encyclopedia (every article, every transcript, every word John has ever spoken into a microphone) fits on a $4 flash drive the size of a fingernail. Not in the cloud. In you.
John did 23 months in federal prison. As a convicted felon he is still barred from voting, from keeping and bearing arms, and from the federal pension he earned over 14 years at the CIA. A pardon restores all three.
Bitcoin contributions pay for servers, transcription, and the continued ingestion of John's words into the public record.
KiriPedia is not a nonprofit. Honestly, this isn't even about the money.

Camp David Final Talks
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
Middle East peace negotiations held at Camp David in the final days of the Clinton administration. Per John Kiriakou, relaying an account from a senior NSC officer who was present, the talks came extraordinarily close to a comprehensive agreement: with President Clinton, Vice President Al Gore, Yasser Arafat, Mahmoud Abbas, and Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres around an enormous Sharpie-marked map of Jerusalem, dividing the city block by block. When the division was complete, Gore said 'My God, we have peace', and Arafat replied 'I can never sell this to the Palestinian people' and walked out.
The Camp David final talks refers to the Middle East peace negotiations held at Camp David in the final days of the Clinton administration, which came extraordinarily close to a comprehensive agreement before Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat withdrew.
John Kiriakou described a first-hand account of the talks as relayed to him by a close friend who was a very senior officer on the National Security Council and present at Camp David throughout the final week of Clinton’s presidency.[1]
The Sharpie map
In the room were President Bill Clinton, Vice President Al Gore, the NSC officer, Yasser Arafat, Mahmoud Abbas, and Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres along with his deputy. The centerpiece of the session was an enormous map of Jerusalem laid out on a table. Using a Sharpie marker, the parties went through the map dividing the city block by block, negotiating which neighborhoods and zones would fall under which sovereignty.[1][2]
When the division was complete, Gore said: “My God, we have peace.”[2]
Arafat’s withdrawal
Arafat responded: “I can never sell this to the Palestinian people.” He walked out of the room.[2]
Gore ran after him and said: “After all this, you can’t just quit. If there’s something you don’t like, let’s renegotiate it.” Arafat said: “I can never sell any deal to the Palestinian people.” And that was the end of it.[2][3]
Clinton’s retrospective assessment
Kiriakou noted that Clinton alluded to the breakdown in his memoir. Clinton’s stated view: he should have pulled Secretary of State Madeleine Albright out of the North Korea negotiations, which were going nowhere, and put her in the room alongside Gore to apply additional pressure to Arafat.[3]
