Hillary Clinton in hospital amid speculation of plane accident in Iran.

Hillary Clinton in a recent appearance in Turkey

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s admittance to the New York-Presbyterian Hospital Monday, Dec, 31 – with a blood clot caused by concussion – gave wings to a cloud of rumor and conspiracy theories surrounding her state of health. The hospital, where Saudi King Abdullah was also treated two years ago, stated that the Secretary was receiving anti-coagulents and her condition would be assessed after 48 hours.

However, NBC television’s medical correspondent Robert Bazell was skeptical about the blood clot being caused by an earlier concussion because, he said, it if were, it would not be treated with anti-coagulents. “So either it’s not really related to the concussion and she’s got a blood clot in her leg or something, or there’s something else going on that we’re not being told.”

Speculation about her condition started flying about in early December, when she cancelled without notice, her participation in the Friends of Syrian forum in Marrakesh on Dec, 6. Not only was she one of the founders of this forum, but her presence was vitally needed at the time because NATO and Washington were picking up suspicious movements of the Syrian army’s chemical weapons, which marked a disastrous turn in the Syrian conflict.

She was first reported to have come down with flu and, three days later, on Dec, 9, with a stomach bug.
On Dec. 10, the day before she was due to testify before the Senate Intelligence Committee on the September 11 terrorist attack on the US Consulate in Benghazi – in which Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other US diplomats lost there lives –   the State Department which has been heavily under fire over the episode, announced that Clinton had sustained a concussion after fainting out from dehydration.
None of the details normally released in such cases, such as when exactly she fainted, the seriousness of the concussion she suffered or how she was being treated, was offered. A State Department source was only willing to say it was “not severe.”
According to another unofficial report, she was apparently working from home. No one in the office appeared to have been delegated her functions although the secretary herself has not been been absent for three weeks.
Then, Friday, Dec. 21, President Barack Obama announced the nomination of Massachusetts Senator John Kerry as next Secretary of State. Clinton had made it known for some time that she intended stepping down at the start of Obama’s second term of office. It was reported that she had talked to the president and Kerry, and commended the senator as having proven his mettle in a long and wide-ranging military, political and diplomatic career. Nothing was said on this occasion about her state of health.

But around Tehran and the Gulf Emirates, debkafile was already picking up insistent rumors claiming that Clinton was seriously injured while on a secret mission in the region in the first week of December. Some claimed that in the same incident, Americans in her party – advisers and security personnel – were either injured or killed. Those rumors did not say what her secret mission was.  However, the episode described occurred shortly after Dec. 1, when, as debkafile reported at the time, Obama administration officials and senior representatives of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei launched secret talks on Iran’s nuclear program.

Although our sources have not identified the negotiators on either side of the table, one of the theories floating around certain capitals claimed that Hillary Clinton three weeks ago was on her way to a secret meeting with President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in regard to those negotiations. The plane carrying her from Bahrain logged its destination as Baghdad, but  is described as having changed direction in midair and headed for Ahvaz, capital of the south Iranian province of Khuzestan. There, it was said, the Iranian president was awaiting her arrival. But then the plane ran into technical trouble and made an emergency landing and that was when she was injured, according to this theory.

The unexplained death of Commander Job Price, 42, SEALs commander in Afghanistan is tied by some of the speculation to that incident. At the time, the Pentagon reported that his sudden death on Dec. 22, in Uruzgan, Afghanistan, was under investigation. It is now suggested that Commander Price was head of the security detail attached to Clinton for her Iran mission and he was one of the casualties of the accident.

In the nature of things, the impact these kinds of rumors have lingers even when they are officially denied – especially given Secretary Clinton’s unusually long absence from the public eye. The medical report promised Wednesday after she is monitored at the hospital for 48 hours to assess her condition, “including other issues associated with her concussion,” is tensely awaited.  After that, said the hospital announcement, “her doctors will determine if any further action is required.”

Clinton, known as the most traveled Secretary of State in US diplomatic history, has been in the international spotlight since 1992 when her husband Bill Clinton was elected president and she became first lady. She then served in the US Senate and later ran for the presidency against Barack Obama.

    Those are the former USSR methods, and we are not surprised. The parents of this USA president met, once upon a time, at a russian language course in the late ’50 . The DNA is an amazing thing. They were ”communist simpatizantes ”.

    Well ‘if’ Clinton was in Iran for secret talks then things must be getting very dangerous. But if she was injured in a crash the talks would not have been held.

    Then there is the coverup over Benghazi.

  7. artaxes's avatar artaxes Says:

    Happy new year everybody.

    All these developments and their explanation stink to high heaven.
    First we have the 20 navy seals put in an old Chinook helicopter and shot down by an RPG, which in itself stinks.
    How could anybody could put all these top elite soldiers in an old slow helicopter.
    Then we have a stealth drone captured by the Iranians (and recently another drone)
    Then we have ambassador Chris Stevens killed inspite of the warning and the intelligence of the increasing danger and the ambassador literally begging for more security and the refusal of any help by the White House.
    It seems to me, that he was deliberately left there to die.
    Then we have the coverup and the ridiculous media circus with a hitherto barely viewed muhammad video.
    Then we have the fact that the White House didn’t even request to interrogate the only suspect and only after the request of republican senator Lindsey Graham an interrogation was to be conducted.
    Then we have Hillary Clinton not able to testify in the Benghazi hearing beause she was allegedly sick.
    Then we have two top generals pratctically forced to resign (in Petraeus case many months after the reason for his resignation must have been known by the White House).
    And now we have Hillary Clinton allegedly been injured while travelling to Iran.
    And to top it all off we have now the Navy Seals commander who lead the execution of Bin Laden allegedly committing suicide.
    Something stinks. Something stinks really bad.

    In real life strange and sometimes tragic things happen.
    That does not mean there is a conspiracy.
    Sometimes its a series of unlucky coincidences and sometimes the cumulative result of serial incompetence.
    But if someone is incompetent or stupid he does at least sometimes accidently the right thing.
    If someone does always the wrong thing (at least from my perspective) it shows, that he does it deliberately.

    For me it is clear that this is high treason and the traitor in chief is obama.

    I agree with all who are comparing this goverment with the USSR-goverments.
    I can understand any US-citizen who fears his goverment more than he fears the terrorists and other enemies like Iran, Russia or China because this goverment has become the biggest enemy of he US.

      And now the agenda to disarm the US, gun control, gun bans.

      • artaxes's avatar artaxes Says:

        That’s the logical next step to the leftist stalinist utopia.
        After that they take your rights and your property.
        But that’s not enough for them. They want the last thing you’ve got. And that is your soul and absolute obidience to and worship for the state.
        In the GDR there was a song “Die Partei hat immer Recht” meaning “the party is always right”.
        So they replace God with the party. Instead of God knows best, it’s the party knows best.
        The ultimate goal of all these collectivist ideologies is the enslavement of the individual for the supposed good of the collective, mother nature etc.
        What is best for the collective is only known by surprise, surprise an unelected elite which has nothing but scorn and contempt for the collective.
        The collective is nothing more than a bunch of atoms and electrons, nothing more than human waste which is to be conditioned like pavlovian dogs.
        That is in a nutshell their word view. They try to but a nice spin on it by using words that sound intelectual, scientific and noble filling whole books and doctoral papers with BS.
        But if you strip all the BS away that is really the core of their belief.
        Needless to say most of these people think that they themselves are not part of the dumb masses until they establish their utopia.
        That is when they discover to their horror that they are not part of the elite but part of the collective like the other poor dumb idiots.

      I dont think its your government maybe obama and his masters if there are any,but not your government,but i think what you have to say is bang on,i think were still missing omething

      • artaxes's avatar artaxes Says:

        I don’t know how deep this goes but there must be at least some persons in the goverment who know something.
        Like all of you I can only speculate but to me this whole thing stinks.

        Ok, you all have a good day.

      I wonder if time wave zero struck…

    • Louisiana Steve's avatar Louisiana Steve Says:

      Well said AR. Sometimes the simple explanation is the only factual one. I believe Obama and his operatives are systematically eliminating anyone who could jeopardize his power and leftist agenda. Unfortunately for him, he continues to dig himself deeper into his lies, distortions and untruths. This will be his undoing. It’s interesting to note that it all started with a forged birth certificate and a willing media. It will continue to grow until even Obama cannot control it anymore. In fact, it could be there now.

  8. Rafael's avatar Rafael Says:

    ” . . . I don’t know how deep this goes but there must be at least some persons in the goverment who know something.”

    Why is it always the great “them” bogie that so quickly burbles up on this site? What was once a fairly interesting blog has in the past months become a petri dish of sociopolitical pathogenesis. Obama’s birth certificate is as valid as Looziana Steve’s; at least BHO’s issue came from wedlock. As for Obama’s ‘operatives’? Give us a break . . . or queue up among those whom, according to transcontinental wing-nut orthodoxy, Obama is systematically eliminating.

    • Joseph Wouk's avatar josephwouk Says:

      Rafael…

      I hear you. I’ve always tried to avoid both lefty and wingnut articles, unless they represent an important strain of thought that could affect the central issue of this site.

      The Hillary story and the SEAL suicide were so obviously being carefully spiked by the MSM that I made an exception and posted the material that was available.

      I don’t always post warnings on obviously unsourced and unreliable reports because my readership is sophisticated enough to separate the wheat from the chaff.

      As far as comments are concerned, the only ones I won’t allow are hate posts or obviously psychotic ones. While many are extreme and obviously biased, I disagree with your conclusion that the site has become “a petri dish of sociopolitical pathogenesis.” Though I gotta say, I love the turn of that phrase… Are you a writer?

    • artaxes's avatar artaxes Says:

      The Obama administration themselve could put immediately an end to all these “wing-nut-theories” or it could at least thorougly discredit them if it would come forth with the truth about Benghazi and other things. I’m looking forward to be exposed as a wacko. I’m waiting …

    • Louisiana Steve's avatar Louisiana Steve Says:

      Rafael-

      Obama’s birth certificate is a forgery. You are free to disagree. As for mine, I have a certified copy issued at the time of my birth in New Orleans. You are also free to disagree on this one as well. I really don’t give a shit. And yes, Obama has operatives. They are called his czars, cabinet, and hundreds of federal agencies, not to mention members of Congress, the press, and members of the Supreme Court. Unfortunately, he appears to use them for matters that concern me and a large segment of America today. If you need list, look in your petri dish. In fact, why don’t you queue up your wingnut idea that Obama is a perfectly honest and charismatic leader and prove it to us ‘pathogens’.

      Oh yeah, I resent being called a social disease and the handle is Louisiana Steve, not Looziana Steve. If you wish to start name calling on this blog, I’ll be happy to accomodate you but then again, that would be sociopolitical toxic encephalopathy.

      • artaxes's avatar artaxes Says:

        Very well said.
        His intelectually superior arguments consist of the wellknown horsedung presented so often these days: name calling and strawmen arguments.

  9. Luis's avatar Luis Says:

    We have a feeling that the ” Happy ” Hillary – Iran story its simply not true. We have the imagination needed to swallow such a story, but we also have a hunch that this is the greatest fairy tale Debka has came up to untill now.

    • Joseph Wouk's avatar josephwouk Says:

      Hard not to feel that way, Luis. It has all the trappings of the other paranoid ravings on the Net. What makes it different is the unbelievable cover story, devoid of any details, that the WH has put out. Raises suspicious of SOMETHING being hidden.

      • Justice for israel's avatar Justice for israel Says:

        somethings no right for sure,but scraping the bottom of the paranoia barrel wont uncover the truth,but you have to admit sometimes it can be very amusing,what some people believe

    • Louisiana Steve's avatar Louisiana Steve Says:

      Maybe so Luis, but a lot of ‘legitimate’ mainstream news outlets are referring to this possiblity. None that I’ve seen have actually refuted it yet. (Sorry I haven’t the time to compile a list Rafael, but if you agree to engage my services at my standard rate of $125 per hour, I’ll be happy to forward an engagement letter for your signature).

  10. defencetoday.com's avatar defencetoday.com Says:

    The biggest problem isn’t the so called ‘whackos’, its the people that stick their fingers in their ears and say that their government surely isn’t capable of such things…

    Check out operation Northwoods and other ‘conspiracy theories’ that turned out to be true.

    • Justice for israel's avatar Justice for israel Says:

      The bit were missing is on the front page of debka,its quite obvious whats gone on clinton went bought off Ahmadinejad promising him the kind of power that doesn’t come from a battery,the evil one himself Khamenei found out and pop went tbe weezel,Wacko but but thats whats left after you take the rest away,i wonder the mind does truly boggle,or did the neo cons find out and decide it wouldn’t do

      • Louisiana Steve's avatar Louisiana Steve Says:

        Interesting point Justice. Might I add that the Obama administration is quite adept at driving a wedge between folks. We see it here in the US all the time. A little bit of this strategy used on Iran is par for Obama and company.
