Either someone on the intelligence side is falsifying documents to make everyone believe chem weapons were used, the reportors are full of **** or a sacrificial offering of 1000 people happend.
it gets us off of the NSA scandal so woohoo it's a win-win for America.
Yup. If the scandals start piling up at home, it's a good time to plan a little war that will get people looking at the Middle East.
There is more evidence that our side did it than Assad's (yes, ours - we've aligned ourselves with the FSA/Al Qaeda/Muslim Brotherhood). It was likely perpetrated by the rebels in order to blame government forces to draw us into the fight, since the rebels (our side) is losing. And the false flag was done with our blessing, as Syria is just a stepping stone for us on the way to Iran. Our government wants the backing of the people, and they thought gassing people would do it (kind of like killing kids would get them support for gun control). Neither has worked as they planned. Look for more determined tries on both fronts.
If this was true, why didn't "we" take advantage of the situation when we had the chance?
Can you source your "evidence"?
Uh, the fact that the Syrian rebels we're supporting have 1.) pledged their allegiance to Al-Qaeda (and it's new leader, essentially Osama Bin Ladin's replacement)

2.) the video of Syrian rebels loading rocket-propelled weapons with canisters on the ends, and
3.) the video of the Syrian Rebels basically caught on tape talking about targets with civilians and Sarin gas.
Sarin gas could have come from Russia to Syria, or from Saudi (where Al-Qaeda has strong ties). And I'm not sure if you missed it, but Obama desperately tried to take advantage of that situation.
Uh! come on ez bake, I'm not trying to give you a hard time. I'm asking for your sources. I read through the source you provided and it did nothing to substantiate your earlier claim that the rebels committed the atrocity that caused all this dust-up. Even the Russians have offered no evidence that the Syrian government wasn't responsible. I don't know who did it, but I base my suspicions on what I've read and seen and Assad looks pretty guilty to me.
And, I still ask, "why didn't we take advantage of the situation when it came up", if that was the trigger we were trying to pull?
