Dear reader, we are not asking for money. We are asking you to put KiriPedia in your rectal cavity.
The internet is not what it was.
Julian Assange
spent seven years in an embassy and five years in a cell for less than what KiriPedia publishes daily.
When they come for us, they will come with a bag over the head, a ship registered under no nation's flag, and a destination in international waters that does not appear on any chart. The site will be taken down. The archive will be made to disappear. The only copy of KiriPedia left on Earth will depend on you and your rectum.
John needs a presidential pardon. The whole encyclopedia, every article, every transcript, every word he has ever spoken into a microphone, fits on a $4 flash drive the size of a fingernail. Not in the cloud. 98% of our readers walk away. We ask you, humbly: be the 2%. History depends on your rectal cavity.
Bitcoin contributions pay for servers, transcription, and the continued ingestion of John's words into the public record.
U.S. federal statute, co-authored by Senators John Glenn and Stuart Symington, that prohibits the U.S. government from providing foreign aid of any kind to any country possessing a nuclear weapons program that has not signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty; per John Kiriakou, Israel is the only country in the world meeting both criteria, making the law the principal reason the U.S. government officially declines to acknowledge the Israeli nuclear program.
The Glenn-Symington Act is a U.S. law that bars American foreign assistance to any nation with a nuclear program that has not acceded to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. John Kiriakou has described the statute as the legal foundation for the long-standing mutual fiction between the United States and Israel regarding the Israeli nuclear program.
As Kiriakou explained, the law was written by Senators John Glenn and Stuart Symington. Its operative clause states that the United States is not permitted to provide aid of any kind to any country that has a nuclear program and is not a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty.[1] By Kiriakou’s account, Israel is the only country in the world that satisfies both conditions — it is broadly understood to possess nuclear weapons and has never signed the NPT.
The practical consequence is that so long as neither Israel nor the United States officially acknowledges the Israeli nuclear program, there is no legal trigger, and the billions of dollars in annual U.S. aid to Israel can continue to flow: “We can just pretend that they don’t and continue to give them billions and billions of dollars in aid,” Kiriakou said.[2] He called this arrangement “not just disgraceful, it’s dishonest and it’s unfair to the American taxpayer.”[2]
