She wasn't just running her own show, she was also running the president.

I wanted to know if Suleiman thought there really was anything to what George had told me about the presidency.

I heard one more thing that the Russians liked her, and that at some point they were tired of Bashar and were thinking about a replacement and that she was one of many on a list.
Right.
So it's only if you challenge her or if you get in her way that you realise what's really going on.
Asma's father Fawaz Akraz responded to an email I sent him.

He told me that any allegations that present his daughter through a narrow lens of power, ambition and wrongdoing don't reflect the person that he knows, nor the humanitarian and development work she's done in Syria.
matched
He also said he's never seen any evidence that asthma sought political power or controlled state institutions or placed individuals into positions of influence for personal purposes.

The thing is, Asma wasn't the only one being accused of ruling through the president.
matched

matched

matched
Luna had been a journalist at Al Jazeera, but in 2011 she started working in Bashar's media team.
matched
She was beautiful and smart, and she quickly became an integral part of the regime's machinery.
matched
It was obvious really early on that she was ambitious and manipulative, but Bashar and Asma needed someone with her skills around them.
matched

matched
This is Amira.
matched
She worked in Asthma's personal office for many years, and she was pretty senior, so she knew Asthma and Luna really well.
matched
But you know the deal by now, she doesn't want to be identified, so this isn't her real name or her real voice.
