Alassad himself launched a mutiny with this slogan. In the eyes of the people, Abla has become a "running dog of western capitalism". If you don't kill him, you won't win the hearts and minds of the people. As for the live broadcast, it is to arouse more repercussions in the Arab world. This is also what Zakayev is very willing to see (this is equivalent to driving American forces out of the Middle East and helping Russia's interests). In order to win the favor of the new owner, Alasad is naturally very willing to work hard. Of course, there must be the arrogance of Alasad after he got the nuclear bomb. Actually, I think he is more like Gaddafi.
