Let's take a look at some facts about the chemical attack that was supposed to have been the "red-line" - Assad is in this region winning against the rebels - without the use of chemical weapons (he is aware that using chemical weapons would get US involved) - Timing: this is happening in sync with UN inspectors arriving to investigate chemical attacks - Rebels have previously used chemical weapons in this conflict (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/may/6/syrian-rebels-used-sarin-nerve-gas-not-assads-regi/ http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/may/6/syrian-rebels...) and there are videos of them experimenting with using sarin on dogs. - Obama and the war machine are synchronously beating the war drums and committing to an attack before the UN inspectors have even had a chance to conclude their investigation of the chemical attack site
