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.

The Caspian drone strike
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
The July 2026 incident in which Ukrainian drones, unleashed by Volodymyr Zelensky as part of a declared 40-day drone war on June 25 to make the Russian people feel pain, strayed onto an Iranian ship in the Caspian Sea and killed an Iranian sailor. John Kiriakou treats Zelensky's subsequent attempt to spin the mistake into a request that the United States expand its Iran war into the Caspian as a probable Netanyahu suggestion, and Iran's decision to accept an apology and reparations as evidence that Iran no longer needs the mistake to be a war.
The Caspian drone strike is John Kiriakou’s name for the July 2026 incident in which Ukrainian drones, sent out under a declared 40-day drone campaign against Russia, hit an Iranian ship in the Caspian Sea, killed a sailor, and produced a brief window in which Kiev tried to turn the mistake into a joint U.S.–Ukraine casus belli against Iran.
Kiriakou’s read
Sitting on Judge Andrew Napolitano’s intelligence-community roundtable at the end of July 2026, Kiriakou treated the pivot Zelensky attempted as behavioural rather than diplomatic. “That’s exactly how this played out. I’m too, this may have been in part as a result of let’s say a suggestion from Benjamin Netanyahu that, you know, the conflict in Iran is expanding. It’s now including the Houthis in Yemen, now the Egyptians, the Jordanians, the Iraqis. You want to be on the right side of this. Maybe you jump in on our side and help us out even symbolically.”[1][2]
He read Zelensky’s calculus as image, not policy. “Zelensky looks like a tough guy. He hits an Iranian ship, doesn’t make an apology, but there’s no real follow-through. And all of a sudden it makes Ukraine a player in the Middle East at least for a minute.”[2]
