Syria's first lady mocks Homsi people, calls herself "the REAL dictator"

Share:

If he’s the Iron Hand, she’s his Velvet Glove.

The wife of Syrian President Bashar Assad bragged to friends that she was the “real dictator” and showed no remorse for her husband’s ruthless crackdown on anti-government rebels, according to leaked emails from the family’s private accounts.

Asma Assad’s messages to her inner circle were part of a trove of personal emails intercepted by Syrian rebels and sent to London’s The Telegraph newspaper last week.

The exchanges were especially damming for the British-born first lady, who had called for liberal reforms inside Syria in the months before the uprising began one year ago, The Telegraph reported.

Yet in a message to a family friend on Jan. 10, the first lady praised a speech by her husband during which he vowed to use an “iron hand” against anti-government protesters.

Asma Assad told the friend that the speech showed strength and sent a message that her husband’s regime was through “messing around.”

In another message sent about a month earlier, Assad, 36, joked about her husband’s reputation across the world as a gangster-in-chief while gabbing with a friend about their relationship.

“As for listening — I am the REAL dictator, he has no choice…” The Telegraph said.

The couple even cracked jokes at the expense of the people of Homs, where scores of rebels have been killed in sieges and rocket attacks by Assad’s forces, The Telegraph reported.

On Jan. 16, Bashar Assad sent his wife an email with a subject line “Student who obtained 0% on an exam.”

The email contained a list of goofball one-liners, supposedly a dim-witted student’s answers to test questions.

For example, one question asked, “In which battle did Napoleon die?” The answer was, “His last battle.”

The next day, Asma Assad forwarded the message to family members with the subject line, “A really bright Homsi student!”

    I guess ‘Homsi’ is a new sect … although closer to sunni than the shabiha sect …

      punishment by death is easy, take away the money, power and let them live with the people as  workers. See what shoes and food they will have….let the people treat them the way they have to them……

        But then you’d have to watch to make sure they didn’t hit the refugee trail. No-one wants them in Tripoli …
        But on the other hand, there are the land mines … let them walk in circles when they near the border.

  7. her words if true, will make full circle and come back to haunt her, no one is above what is automaticly set in the scheme of all things, call it karma, call it divine justice, call it reaping what is sown it all comes down to the fact that not one human is untouchable, not one person or empire  can stand without eventually falling. everything has an ending. just my wahabi, salafist, zionist, imperialist,comunist point of view.

    If this is true, she defines narcissism at a level way higher than humanly possible. I think bashar takes the title of Nero for the 21th century.

    Thank you geo, You spilled the beans, and let me loose. lol
    I’m honored and privileged to have met you and your family personally. I’m also very honored to tell everyone that I was your guest for few days. Few days, of which I will always cherish. I cherish every minute I spent in your house and in your company, and on the trip we made together to Miami.…..You and your wife are a wonderful couple, wonderful hosts, and more importantly wonderful friends. You two simply define what humanity and friendship is all about. Yes lots of fun, lots of wine, many cups of espresso, lots discussion, and much of human bonding. Many good stories to tell, and many more to write.
    I’m honored to be your friend ,and I know every person who meets you will be lucky to have you as a friend.

    1. wow prophet, you spilled 4 more cups of  beans than i did lol,  i guess you were kind enough to leave the not so safe flying i subjected you to for another day lol. belive it or not the wreckage finaly got picked up today by giant helicopter, will send picture tomorrow.

       far too often credit is not given when due and without yalibnan and the curious cat that lives in all of us we would not know each other the way we do today.

       i know most of us will not return to lebanon and i am greatfull for the opportunity we have to interact  and qualify our friendship to one another via this venue  not based on  religion, or politics  but on our many common  values and common grounds we need to focus on instead of our differences.
        a biblical advice states that we must become poor for th poor, rich for the rich, a jew for the jew, and greek for the greek clearly teaching us to look through each others eyes to gain understanding of others and why they feel the way they do,,,,  meeting you and getting to know your experience as a southerener and the tragic fact that you lost familly members  at the hands of israelis, lebanese and syrian yet  you did not get sucked in and become a  partaker in the violence makes you  a better man than i am,.

      all in all i am greatfull to know you and look forward to double esspresso or double scotch with as many  on this site right down to te salafist police  leo and dab lol.

          Not that I’m asking … That sounds like a war experience … where nothing is in your hands. 🙂
          An A340 makes it much more remote from your senses and less exciting … up to the point of impact. 😉

        2. I am glad you guys met and bonded , seems like Lebanese get along and understand each other better more so in Diaspora. Most of our politicians before they become one should live in Western society for at least 10 years and return to Lebanon but of course there are some exception always, some would never change the way they think.
