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.

Why Iran targets the Gulf states
From KiriPedia, the archive of John Kiriakou's on-record words
Based on 1 recorded interview · Last updated
John Kiriakou's explanation of why Iranian missiles fell more heavily on Gulf Arab states than on Israel during the 2026 war: the Gulf has no Iron Dome, a finite missile stock has to be spent where it counts, and hosting American forces converted an uneasy coexistence into open enmity.
Why Iran targets the Gulf states is John Kiriakou’s answer to a question put to him during the 2026 Iran war: why Iranian strikes fell so much more heavily on the Gulf Arab states than on Israel, beyond the fact that the Gulf is closer.
His first answer is defensive coverage. The Gulf states “don’t have Iron Dome” — so “if you only have a certain number of missiles, you want to make them count.”[1][2]
His second is political. Gulf–Iranian relations had long been “this uneasy coexistence” on top of mutual hostility — “Gulf states and Iran have always hated each other” — but hosting the war’s infrastructure ended the ambiguity: “if the Gulf states are going to sponsor and house American troops and airmen and ships and all that stuff, then the Iranians are all in.”[2][3]
He adds the Abraham Accords as an aggravating factor, agreeing that they “must have driven them absolutely crazy” and calling them the thing that “added insult to injury.”[3]
