I think "
had" is the operative word. Bashar Al-Assad had a hot looking and intelligent wife. She divorced him and fled to England. Now, it looks like one of Putin's henchmen tried to poison Assad. Why? Because apparently, in order to gain safe passage from Syria to Russia, he traded military secrets to the Israelis. This is an embarrassment to Putin, also Putin has no further need for Assad.
Like I've said before, I empathize with Bashar. I don't think he ever expected or wanted to be the leader of Syria. His brother had been groomed for that job. Bashar sacrificed everything to get his family safely out of Syria. I actually find that rather admirable. As for his wife divorcing him - that may have been for her own protection, I don't really know. That was certainly an odd twist to Bashar's story. The poisoning - I think was to be expected.
****. SHE'S IN MOSCOW. PASSPORT EXPIRED
SHE HAS ACUTE MYELOID LEUKAEMIA AND FALSE RUMOURS WERE THAT SHE PREFERS TREATMENT IN THE UK
While Asma’s father Fawaz Akhras told
The Daily Beast: “I am able to confirm that the reports are false,” over claims that she wanted a divorce and to come to the UK. He added: “She is receiving the best treatment possible."
