If any of this shit was true they wouldn't be writing headlines that way. Simple as.
Most mainstream headlines are understandably written with emphasis in mind, and so-called professional columnists know to avoid anything redundant. If you're writing your hundredth consecutive article on "The Dictator Assad, Who Kills His Own People" (why always that line specifically), and most of the western news-loving world is already following the saga, you shouldn't run over the whole plotline again in the title.
But if your job has a bonus objective besides "Inform the public as efficiently as possible," and you absolutely need them to interpret it certain ways, well then you do shit like use a natural disaster and a preexisting civil war as reasons to hate a president.
The way they talk abt him you'd think his full name was Bashar Al-Assadwhokillshisownpeople, but still have a hard time coming up with evidence when it matters. That kind of thing should be obvious and discussion worthy to the public by now. It should actually stick, on its own, like a real revelation about a real Murderous Dictator always does, but it won't so they'll just keep forcing it til they lose those Rebel Held oilfields or Assadwhokillshisownpeople dies of old age.
