Well, the notion that it was the rebels who released chemical weapons isn't terribly tin hat worthy. Indeed, there is evidence for it (I hear).
Assad was beating the rebels. That he would suddenly unleash the one kind of attack that would bring international intervention is something to be questioned, surely.
You also have to question the motives of only interfering with nation states in a particular part of the globe. Plenty of atrocities in North Korea and parts of Africa... I don't see Western forces eyeing them up.
It's worrying. If WW3 ever occurs, it's going to be a Russian/Chinese reaction to this kind of stuff. You can bet they're concerned about the US and their followers launching attacks on 3 different Middle Eastern regimes in little more than a decade.
