Der Spiegel Reports Possible Exit Plan for Mubarak

German paper Der Spiegel is reporting that the U.S. government and Egyptian officials are working on a plan for Hosni Mubarak to exit Egypt on a “prolonged health check” that would place him in a luxury clinic near Baden-Baden, Germany. The report builds upon earlier claims from a piece in The New York Times.
