There have been reports that the Rebels and even ISIS have access to chemical weapons and Sarin Gas.
However, apparently U.S. intelligence sources are "confident" Assad is the culprit.

Well I think that is a misunderstanding of how the Russians work. The Russians don't care what Assad does to his own people as long as Russian strategic interests in the region are protected.
There had also been reports in the past that the reason Assad invited the Russians was to use them as a counterpoint to the Iranians who were starting to throw their weight around.
The Assads did not stay in power for almost 50 years by being puppets.
