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.

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. Army general and commander of CENTCOM during the 1991 Gulf War; per John Kiriakou, the architect of the "visionary" flanking maneuver that bypassed Iraq's fortified Kuwait–Saudi border, struck from the north, and produced the Highway of Death.
General Norman Schwarzkopf was the commander of U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) during the 1991 Gulf War. Per John Kiriakou, Schwarzkopf executed “visionary leadership” in the prosecution of the war against Saddam Hussein.[1]
The flanking maneuver
Kiriakou describes the operation as “a very simple and very elementary, like, first-step play, flanking move.” The Iraqis had fortified the Kuwait–Saudi border. The U.S. sent “a couple of tanks” and fought what became known as the Battle of Khafji as a diversion. The main force was routed “around into Saudi Arabia, up and around into Iraq,” and struck the Iraqis from the north. As Iraqi forces tried to flee Kuwait on the Iraq–Kuwait highway — the Highway of Death — “we’re hitting them from the south from Khafji, and we’re hitting them from the north from Iraq.”[2][3]
Per Kiriakou: “We killed everybody. Everybody. 200,000 soldiers in their military — wiped them out.” The only Iraqi forces Saddam kept in reserve were the Republican Guard and the Special Republican Guard — the latter staffed by Saddam’s own family as his final ring of security.[4]
