iDear reader,we are not begging for money.We are asking youto put KiriPedia up your ass.

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.

Operation Gladio
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 3 recorded interviews · Last updated
A CIA, MI6, Vatican and NATO operation to leave 'stay-behind' sleeper networks across Western Europe after World War II in case of a Soviet invasion; John Kiriakou, who learned of it only after leaving the CIA, notes it was made public by Italian PM Andreotti in 1990.
Operation Gladio was, in John Kiriakou’s account, an operation hatched by the CIA, MI6, the Vatican and NATO at the end of World War II to leave “stay-behind” sleeper agents across Western Europe in case of a Soviet invasion.[1][2] He says everything he knows about it he learned after leaving the CIA, and that it became public only when Italian Prime Minister Andreotti disclosed it to parliament in 1990. It intersected, he notes, with Italy’s P2 Masonic lodge and figures like Michele Sindona and Licio Gelli.[3] Some analysts, he adds, treat Gladio as a template for later programs — the Iran-Contra death squads and the arming of anti-Soviet fighters in Afghanistan.[4] In the same conversation, Kiriakou also recounted the discovery of Saudi princes’ phone numbers in Abu Zubaydah’s diary.
In another telling, Kiriakou described Gladio as a U.S. government decision to leave people — in some cases CIA officers — behind in countries liberated during World War II, mostly in Eastern Europe, in case an uprising against the Soviet Union was needed; he named Italy, where it fed into the 1949 Italian election operation, as the first place it played a role.[5]
The Olof Palme assassination
Asked about a claim that the 1986 assassination of Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme was the work of a Gladio-linked cell, Kiriakou said he had no knowledge of any such connection. His own understanding of the case: he had always heard Palme was killed by a Kurdish man, who was convicted and then had his conviction overturned on appeal; the murder was never conclusively solved.[6]
