So Queen Rania is on Twitter (@queenrania). She’s been flying around in her husband’s helicopter, meeting the Pope, talking about changing the world. But Syria isn’t far behind.
First Lady Asma Al-Assad may not be on Twitter, but she’s on Facebook. While her southern counterpart has been having fun doing acrobatics in helicopters and calling her husband a “real life action hero” (tell him to put the Playstation down then), Asma has been doing charity work.
She’s just launched the Massar-E project, which helps disadvantaged children learn about technology.
We know which of the two can be seen wondering around their city without hundreds of bodyguards.
I know Rania has just singed up for Twitter so maybe it’s not a fair comparison – but if numbers mean anything, Asma has 9000 fans, Rania has 4000.

Since they are both so web savvy I wonder if they will read this while Googling their names?
If so I hope they check out my very soon to be updated web-site of images from both Syria and Jordan

It would be a bit cynical of the First lady to have an “official” fan club on a network so infested with Israeli spies and propaganda that they had to close it down for other Syrians, no?

I don’t know why but I assumed you had a liking towards Sit Rania but alas,I’m comforted with the though that you don’t (at least not that much)
When people call her “your majesty” it makes my stomach churn,along with inducing a cringe like no other…
Majesty kamen….
I’ll hold my tongue when it comes to what I think about her huband,the “Heshemite King”
