British wife of President Assad cheers him on as he makes rare public appearance in defiance of protestors

Syrian President Bashar Assad joined thousands of his supporters today in an extremely rare public appearance alongside his British-born wife.

The embattled leader told a pro-regime rally in the capital that the 'conspiracy' against his country will fail.

Wife Asma Assad, a graduate of King's College, London, and a former investment banker attended with their children Zein, nine and Karim, seven.

1. A good bronchodilator might help...

....but that's one nasty case of Asthma.

2. What, a pun of an Arab name?

Hmm... Are you saying that Asma is "nasty?"

3. I think she's rather attractive. Poor little Zein looks terrified.

I suppose any child would be, if they've heard anything about what Papa was up to in suppressing the citizenry.

Bashar was stupid. He should have stayed in London as an eye doctor. He would have done well enough, and been happier, I think. He's a lousy dictator and has been from the start.

He's completely lost the bubble and turned into a monster ten times worse than his father, who was no saint on a good day, but who, in contrast, looks like frigging Ghandi compared to Junior, here.

4. Isn't Rand Paul an eye doctor too?

5. No idea....but nothing would surprise me! Separated at birth? nt

6. Sure are some interesting facial expressions in first photo.

7. Those three men behind her are security, I'm sure.

They look pretty watchful. It's stupid to even be out there though...

8. Why is it stupid to be out there?

Have heard of no casualties amongst Assad supporters.
