The genocide Joe rhetoric disappeared pretty quickly too. That was a friendly nickname, wouldn't actually want to acknowledge it's a genocide.

Kind of a silly one tbh I think it made more people peel away
They're not even proud of the genocide they enabled now?
We have to understand that in many ways, the media functions as much to distract and deflect as much as it does to inform.
Politicians see battles not only conducted on battlefield with bullets, but in newsrooms with information and soundbytes.
The reason we are hearing so much about Assad now, as oppose to just a few months ago is that they are setting the scene to make Israel look like liberators. Even if Assad was a tyrant, we can't deny the fact that the instability does ultimately play to Israel's advantage.
