Syrian head of state Bashar al-Assad and London-born wife Asma al-Assad appear to live in a surreal psychological bubble, insulated from the grotesque violence that has claimed the lives of 8,000 Syrians, according to a cache of some 3,000 alleged emails and documents obtained by Syrian activists and published by the Guardian issue dated March 15, 2012. File photo : Syrian president Bashar Al Assad and his wife Asma are received by Indian President Pratibha Singh Patil and Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh during a ceremonial reception at the President Palace in New Delhi, India, on June 18, 2008.
