The whole world is asking the question whether he did it or not. Except obviously America and “coalition of the willing”. Until now America has not shared any proof with the world and only wants the world to “believe” in its own assessment.

So there is no proof at this moment, one way or another. BUT … there is a logical argument. The last thing Assad wants is to involve Americans in Syria. And when he already has upper hand in fight against rebels/Qaeda, then why would he do this stupid and idiotic act of using chemical weapons and give the Americans the justification it desperately needs to attack Syria?
Looking at it another way. You are demanding proof that Assad did not use those weapons. But actually it should be you PROVIDING proof that he used the weapons. Because it is you who is making the allegation.

look at it another way, you are saying that there is no proof that Assad did this. That means you are saying the other side did it. You prove that. Whether Assad did it or not is not what matters to me. It is because Assad chose to brutalised a whole nation in order to perpetuate his brutal rule that the situation got to this, so he has to carry the blame.
