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.

Former Deputy Director of the Central Intelligence Agency; encountered by John Kiriakou in the lobby of the Sanaa Marriott during Kiriakou's final Yemen trip as a Senate Foreign Relations Committee investigator.
Steve Kappes is a former Deputy Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. John Kiriakou encountered him in the lobby of the Marriott hotel in Sanaa, Yemen, during his final Yemen trip as a Senate Foreign Relations Committee investigator in approximately 2010. The presence of the “package is moving” protective-detail call-out alerted Kiriakou to the presence of a senior visitor; Kappes greeted him by name on emerging from the elevator.[1][2]
Delivering the ultimatum to Gaddafi
Kiriakou says that while he was serving as executive assistant, Kappes — then CIA deputy director — flew to Tripoli and personally told Muammar Gaddafi to give up his weapons of mass destruction programs; Gaddafi complied, giving up his nuclear energy program as well as his chemical and biological weapons programs.[3]
The Feinstein condition on Panetta’s confirmation
Kiriakou describes Senator Dianne Feinstein as one of the CIA’s foremost cheerleaders on Capitol Hill, and says that when Barack Obama struggled to find a CIA director willing to take the job, she told Leon Panetta she would vote to confirm him only if he chose Kappes — one of the “godfathers” and creators of the CIA torture program — as his deputy.[4]
