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 strike on Ahmadinejad's house
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
On the first day of the 2026 war, reports placed one of the targets in Tehran at Narmak, believed to be the residence of former Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. John Kiriakou broke into the broadcast to call it gratuitous and an act of murder: Ahmadinejad is retired, holds no authority, and — in Kiriakou's description — was a moderate.
The strike on Ahmadinejad’s house was reported mid-broadcast on 28 February 2026, and John Kiriakou interrupted the show to address it — “Ted, may I add one thing? … this also just in from Al Jazeera.”[1]
The report placed one of the targeted sites in Tehran at Narmak, in the east of the city, “believed to be the residence of former populist president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.”[1][2]
Why he singled it out
Kiriakou’s objection rests on Ahmadinejad holding nothing that could be described as a war aim. “Now, listen. He’s the former president. He’s not in any position of authority. He’s retired.”[2]
He then added a characterisation that runs against the man’s Western reputation, and against Ahmadinejad’s own record in office: “He was a moderate, too.”[2]
The verdict follows without qualification. “Targeting him is simply an act of murder.” Pressed, he repeated the word twice: “It’s gratuitous. It’s gratuitous.”[2]
The comparison
To make the category clear he moved the case to a war he knows better: “It would be like going to war against Afghanistan and and killing Hamid Karzai” — who, he noted, is still living in Kabul.[2]
The point of the analogy is that a retired head of state in his own house is not a military target under any reading, and that striking one is therefore not a proportionality question but a killing without a purpose attached.
