The pressure on getting rid of the guy one way or another's been on the rise for years; the whole Kony 2012 thing was an attempt to profit from that, not an attempt to hurry it along.

A lot of the work in dealing with the LRA isn't going to get that close to normal news headlines, if just because the western world simply doesn't care. Even the interest spike from the video was back to normal levels within about a week; online outrage over stuff like that has a pitiful shelf-life.
