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.
John Kiriakou's account of how the mass dismissal of career U.S. ambassadors — never replaced — left the Gulf without American envoys as war with Iran loomed, so allied royals had to ask him personally whether the U.S. would attack.
U.S. diplomatic vacancies is John Kiriakou’s account of how the mass dismissal of career American ambassadors — dozens fired and never replaced — hollowed out U.S. diplomacy just as war with Iran approached. Visiting Abu Dhabi and Dubai days before the attack, he found government ministers and senior royals asking him personally, “do you think he’s going to attack? Because we genuinely don’t know” — there being no U.S. ambassador in Abu Dhabi, Bahrain, Kuwait or Dubai to tell them.[1][2] Diplomacy, he notes, must happen at the ambassadorial or chargé level; the military attachés who remain are there to collect intelligence and sell weapons, not to conduct dialogue.[3]
