    Every time I see you, Mr. Kiriakou, you are more serene and happy. I was watching your conversation with Chris Hedges, and when Chris asked you if there should be a CIA, I stiffened and braced...afraid you'd say yes. It made me so happy to hear your answer. Thank you.

    Great interview guys. You asked your questions (good questions) , but you let your guess talk and never interrupt him once which is rare nowadays. Just came across your channel and enjoyed the interview. Will be back for sure. ✌️

    John Kiriakou is someone of exceptional ability and combines that with a strong sense of the rule of law and moral principle who was not corrupted like so many by absolute power over other human beings.

    in my understanding, leonie brinkema is a bill clinton appointee, which i suppose given the time frame of john's case is more impactful as its a clear sign of the millenium-consensus' attempt to punish this hero.

    I was born in 1948 to parents & their families, who were American Baptist whose ministers demonstrated their definite support for the immediate end of segregation & the liberation of American African Americans, along with Our Riverside Baptist Church in upper NYC which was our Cathedral & where Martin Luther King made his most famous speech. So even when barely in High school, and thru graduation, I was sensitive to bigoted statements some of my fellow students made. I had Jewish friends, boys who made the first pilgrimage to Zion, and returned making horrifically bigoted claims against Palestinians. It reminds me of a famous Broadway Musical,””””You’ve got to be taught to hate & fear, you’ve got to be carefully taught! I tried to keep up constructively good relations with some of those Long Island boys & later their wives, but now they’ve all have gone over to the dark side of vicious bigotry.

      Thus the 2 people and cases are not even close to being analogous it's a shame someone has to actually point that out to you.

      You are comparing a whistleblower convicted on trumped up charges with an actual agent of a foreign government? Truth must be hard for Zionists when you have lost all your moral compass.
