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.
John Kiriakou's account of the killing of Hamas political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, which he says Israel carried out via a bomb planted months in advance in Haniyeh's regular guesthouse and detonated remotely — an operation he contrasts with the diplomatic and airspace complications a missile strike would have entailed.
The assassination of Ismail Haniyeh refers to the killing of the Hamas political-bureau chief in Tehran. John Kiriakou identifies Haniyeh, based in Doha, as the head of Hamas’s political bureau and the lead ceasefire negotiator in the group’s dealings during the Gaza war; he was in Iran to attend the inauguration of reformist President Masoud Pezeshkian.[1]
Kiriakou says Israel planted a bomb in the Tehran guesthouse where Haniyeh regularly stayed as early as several months before the killing, then detonated it remotely once he arrived — rather than launching a missile strike, which would have required violating Jordanian, Iraqi, or Saudi airspace.[2] He notes that rumors circulated attributing the bombing instead to the Iranian opposition group MEK (Mujahedin-e-Khalq), which was already active inside Iran.[3]
