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.
John Kiriakou's account, drawn from CIA historical files he read as a junior analyst, of how fast foreign governments moved to clear themselves after the assassination of John F. Kennedy: the Soviets came to the Americans within minutes, the Chinese did the same, and the Cubans asked the Mexicans to pass on that it was not them.
The denials after Dallas is John Kiriakou’s account of how quickly foreign governments moved to clear themselves after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, and the reason he gives for doubting that a foreign service would attempt such a thing.
What the files showed
Kiriakou explains that the CIA keeps its historical documents open to junior analysts, who can simply go through them to get a sense of what a period was like.[1]
What those files recorded was a scramble. The Soviets came to the Americans within minutes of Kennedy being killed, saying “we swear to God it wasn’t us, we swear it wasn’t us.” The Chinese did the same thing. The Cubans asked the Mexicans to tell the Americans that it was not them.[1]
Why he tells it
He raised the episode in July 2024 when asked how much credit to give the idea that a foreign adversary — China, Russia or Iran — had been behind the shooting at Butler. His answer was that it was unlikely, and the historical record of the denials is the reason: killing an American presidential candidate is a trigger for world war, and no service considers the blowback worth it.[2][3]
His second reason is professional. A foreign service that had decided to do it would not leave the work to a twenty-year-old, would not attempt it from 145 yards, and would not use an AR-15. It would use a professional sniper at five hundred or eight hundred yards, too far away to be seen — “and he’s not going to miss.”[3]
