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.
Kiriakou's assessment of which espionage films get it right — Argo, The Recruit and Bridge of Spies — and his flat rejection of the action genre's premises, including the hidden weapons stash.
Asked which espionage films resemble the job, John Kiriakou named three.
Argo he calls “completely true. Completely, totally true,” adding that the officers involved were heroes at the agency.[1]The Recruit he rates almost completely accurate, with a single correction drawn from his own time at the Farm: training was hard, “but they didn’t beat us like they beat him.”[1][2]Bridge of Spies he calls 100 per cent historically accurate.[2]
The action genre he rejects: “the action ones, it’s totally made up.”[2] Asked specifically whether he had ever had anything resembling a hidden room with a stash of weapons, in the manner of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, his answer was no — “nobody does.”[1]
