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.
The Israeli military operation in Jenin of early July 2023, which John Kiriakou cited by its casualty figures — nine Palestinians dead and about a hundred wounded before the withdrawal — and which he called only the very beginning of what the most right-wing government in Israeli history would do.
The Jenin incursion was the Israeli military operation in the West Bank city of Jenin in early July 2023, which John Kiriakou raised days afterwards as the first instalment of a longer campaign.
The figures
Asked for his view of how Israel was proceeding under what he called “the most right-wing extremist government in the history of Israel,” Kiriakou named the ministers he held responsible — Itamar Ben Gvir at national security and Bezalel Smotrich at finance with military authority over the West Bank — before turning to the operation itself.[1]
“This incursion that we saw in Tingenin a couple of days ago that resulted, now they’re telling us nine Palestinians dead, about a hundred wounded, and then they apparently pulled out. This is just the very beginning.”[2] (The auto-caption renders the place name as Tingenin; the reference is to Jenin.)
The judgement attached to it
Kiriakou treated the operation as a symptom rather than an incident. In the same answer he described the ministers as men “willing to commit war crimes,” convicted of felony hate crimes against Palestinians and given to celebrating those who had committed crimes against humanity against them, and concluded flatly: “There’s no hope for peace.”[1]
Asked whether American support for such a government had a sell-by date, he said it did not — “We’ll support Israel no matter how murderous and how right-wing extremists it becomes.”[1]
