Jerome Corsi, WND senior staff reporter and editor of Red Alert, has fallen ill after he was forced to endure detention at the hands of armed Kenyan immigration authorities.
WND founder and editor Joseph Farah said Corsi has arrived at his home in the United States and is now under care of a physician because he is very sick.
"Corsi is still recovering from his traumatic abduction at the hands of Kenya security officials who halted his planned press conference in Nairobi and denied him and his party food for an entire day before allowing them to depart for London," Farah said.

testing
Probably not whether they denied him food but if they made him drink the water.
Thanks Iam not sure if anyone has seen this
In other words, he won’t be on Sean Hannity’s shows today?
Hopefully, he will be okay. I wonder how many people are given poison in similar circumstances?
Just think of all the people Putin poisoned.
Shades of Alexander Litvinenko?
I hope they did not poison him. Does not sound good. Hopefully he will still give the documents to Hannity for his show. I noticed last night Hannity didn’t plug him for this evening. God speed to Jerome Corsi.

This doesn’t sound good at all ping!
BTTT
so it’ll be just a few more days b4 we see the explosive emails.... uh huh...
bump
My first thought was poison, too.
I hope he’s got some good doctors and is having tests.
Yup. Hopefully his docs have done a full blood screening, esp. for poisons.
bttt
That is the reason they let him go rather then keep him in Kenya. He was poisoned.
Prayers for Corsi. He was in Kenya working for a better informed American People.
I’m afraid you are right.
YEY! I can post again!
Sounds fishy to me. I notice all sorts of ads for his book interspersed in the article. I also note that he will write his next column “As soon as he recovers”.
Just sounds like maybe he doesn’t have the goods he claims. Hope I am wrong.
Hope he secured whatever he had with somebody trustworthy.
Have you read Shadow Warriors (K.Timmerman) yet?
He did some interviews after leaving the country and sounded fine. I hope its not a delayed reaction to something he ingested while there.
Could be, but I am more concerned that that.
Does anybody remember Georgi Markov and the ricin pellet injected in his leg? He died a few days later.
Lord,please protect,heal and keep Mr.Corsi.
This certainly sounds fishy.
Are posts showing up yet?
Well if this does. Prayers for Corsi.Hard to read this, but I pray he will be ok!
I applaud Corsi for his work.
I bought his book Obama nation but struggled to finish it. If someone edited the book, they should have been fired for doing such a poor job.
We’ll hope someone has a back up of Corsi’s Kenyan data stashed.
Let’s see what Sean says this afternoon after Rush...
They need to test the papers themselves. Remember..the papers and things were brought to Corsi from his motel room. Ricin could have been put on the papers. I pray that something sinister is not going on here...but this is very disconcerting to say the least.
test 1...2...3
Corsi does not strike me as the healthiest guy in the world to begin with. A relative of mine also became ill while visiting Kenya.
Coming soon to a neighborhood near you.
:(
Prayers up for a quick recovery for Mr. Corsi.

Kenya: Have a Nice Flight - And Don't Come Back, You Hear?
The East African (Nairobi)
12 October 2008 Posted to the web 13 October 2008
Nairobi
If controversial American writer Jerome Corsi did not understand Kenyans' affinity for Barack Obama before he flew into Nairobi a week ago, he does now. Corsi, author of The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality was hastily deported by Immigration authorities just minutes before he addressed his first press conference in Nairobi, sparking outrage among some local activists about Kenya's "intolerance" of dissenting views.
Circumstantial evidence however indicates that the overwhelming majority of Kenyans were in favour of the deportation.
What's with Prof. Yash Pal Ghai, the law academic who presided over Kenya's abortive Bomas constitutional review process?
Recently, the good professor resigned his position as the United Nations' Special Representative to Cambodia, after Prime Minister Hun Sen called him "arrogant" and "deranged."
It must have caused a feeling of déjà vu; Prof Ghai's his attempts at constitution-making in Kenya were essentially one big name-calling party.
how many even know of the deportation?
Story is very weak on details. Sounds like WND hyping things up, as usual.
Obamacide replaces Arkanside.
The trauma made him ill?
He sounds fine on the audio with Hannity.
Sorry, I’m not buying any of it.
If Corsi has evidence linking Barry to Dingo then just release it otherwise PLEASE END THE DRAMA!

Authorities deport US author
Published in: Legalbrief Africa
Date: Mon 13 October 2008
Immigration authorities in Kenya have deported the American author of a highly critical book about US presidential candidate Barack Obama.
The author, Jerome Corsi, was in Kenya to launch his book which accuses Obama of supporting an alleged plot to turn Kenya into an Islamic state. According to a BBC News report, officials said that Corsi did not have the right visa. Obama's father was from Kenya, where the US Democratic contender is a highly popular figure. Corsi - author of The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality - has been accused of a smear campaign against Obama.
Joseph Mumira, head of criminal investigations at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, said that Corsi was briefly detained at immigration headquarters before being taken to the airport for deportation.
If Corsi were simply a tin foil hat wandering in Kenya, why all the attention.
Alright, you know what, I am starting to think this is all one big scam.
Where are the emails?
He may be sick, but he can still have somebody give them to Hannity before he dies from poisoning and then he can’t tell anybody where they supposedly are.
If we don’t see the emails by Wednesday, it will be clear Corsi is a liar.
Being denied food for one day IS NOT, REPEAT, IS NOT, going to cause bigtime sickness.
What is criminal about gathering information for a story?
Probably just drinking the water there is enough.

The African press is hyping it up also, for some reason.
