If Assad is responsible for the gas attack - like his previous gas attacks, particularly since winging the documents regarding use and inventory of chem weapons, the penalty must be severe. I do not believe Russia when they say it was a false flag crap.
All that said, Syria is not wort starting WW3 over. Though keeping Russia in check - a must - will raise those risks.
