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 logic of radicalization
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
John Kiriakou's explanation of why an isolated state escalates rather than moderates: it stops caring what anyone else thinks, concludes it can count on no one, and does things its own way. He applies it to Israel's 2026 death penalty law and judges the law a serious mistake in Zionism's own terms.
The logic of radicalization is John Kiriakou’s account of why states become more extreme as their position worsens, offered when he was asked whether the Knesset death penalty law was a sign that Israel’s government was losing power — on the analogy of the Nazis accelerating mass killing as they neared defeat.
He allowed that this was part of it, and then gave a second mechanism: “when a country is going down the toilet and they just stop caring what everyone else thinks. They’re so isolated. They have their heads so far up their own asses and they think, we’re all alone. We can’t count on anyone. We have to do things our way. It’s the logic of radicalization.”[1][2]
A mistake in its own terms
Kiriakou’s judgement of the law is strategic rather than only moral. “I think it’s a huge mistake from a Zionist point of view,” he said. “The Zionists’ biggest problem is that they’re perceived as being cruel maniacs. This isn’t going to help.”[2]
His co-host’s summary — that the law would simply anger people — he accepted without qualification.[2]
