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 Netanyahu death rumour
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
A theory advanced by well-regarded podcasters during the 2026 Iran war that Benjamin Netanyahu had been killed and the fact concealed — his son's seven-day silence read as sitting shiva. John Kiriakou recounts it collapsing when Netanyahu gave a press conference, and sets it against the real decapitation campaign against the IRGC.
The Netanyahu death rumour was a claim circulated during the 2026 Iran war that Benjamin Netanyahu had been killed and his death concealed. John Kiriakou recounted it as an object lesson in how quickly credibility could be spent during the war.
The case, made by “a couple of podcasters who until yesterday were highly respected,” ran that Netanyahu had not been seen; that his son had gone quiet on Twitter for exactly seven days, which was read as sitting shiva; and that the son’s return to posting marked the end of the mourning period.[1] Kiriakou’s account of the refutation is one word long: Netanyahu gave a press conference. “Oops.”[1]
His own explanation for the absence was mundane — “There are plenty of bunkers in Israel. They’re all over Israel. Everybody has a bunker.”[2] A fortnight later he was tracking reports placing Netanyahu abroad instead; see Netanyahu in hiding.
The real decapitation campaign
The rumour sat alongside a genuine sequence of killings. The United States announced that it had killed the IRGC’s spokesman, following the head of the IRGC and the minister in charge of it.[3][1]
Kiriakou’s forecast for the war as a whole, given in the same passage, was that “it’s worse than it was yesterday. This is not going to end quickly. It’s not going to end easily or nicely. It’s going to be hideous.”[3] The theory behind the killings is treated at the house of cards theory.
