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 Israelis are free agents
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
John Kiriakou's formulation of Israel as an intelligence partner whose cooperation is conditional rather than allied — friendly when it suits, and equally willing to deal with Russia, China or Germany — offered as the reason an Israeli-run source could end up passing American information to a service hostile to the United States, and given each time with an acknowledgement that saying it brings him threats.
The Israelis are free agents is the phrase John Kiriakou uses for a claim he makes about intelligence liaison rather than about politics: that Israeli cooperation with the United States is contingent, and that treating it as an alliance produces bad predictions about where American product ends up.[1]
He states it each time with a preface about what saying it costs him: “I’m going to get threats from the Israelis again. Every time I say something like this, I get threats — but I’m going to say it again anyway.”[1]
The claim
“The Israelis are free agents. The Israelis are not necessarily our friends. They are when it suits them. But when it suits them to be friendly with the Russians, they go with the Russians, or with the Chinese or the Germans or, you know, anybody. It doesn’t make any difference. The Israelis do what’s best for the Israelis.”
The operational consequence is the point of the formulation. If an Israeli-run access agent collects something of value, nothing in the relationship prevents it travelling onward: “if that means using a source like Jeffrey Epstein and passing information on to a hostile intelligence service — or at least one that’s hostile to the United States — that’s exactly what they’re going to do.”[2]
Where he applies it
He advances it in support of his standing reading of Jeffrey Epstein as an access agent most likely run by Mossad, and it is the premise behind his exchange with Alan Dershowitz about what an admission of Israeli espionage would actually have done to Epstein’s sentence.[3][4]
