Only by Trump. Nobody with any credibility has said that.

The US says they have hard evidence but they haven't released it. They could have people on the ground they need to protect though. So it's a simple choice. Do you believe Putin and Assad or the US intelligence service. They can't both be lying. Your default setting of "everybody's lying" won't work here.

Not on the face of it. But I have no idea exactly what things are like on the ground, in Syria. And neither have you.
THe UK based it's evidence on the guilt of Syria on the fact that on the ground reports stated the gas was delivered by barrell bomb and that a helicopter was above the area at the time. Neither of these are used by the rebels.
Also in terms of culpability the US State Department have sad that Assad has used gas 50 times to their knowledge.
I see Comrade Corbyn couldn't manage to condem Russia for Salisbury this morning on the Andrew Mar show. Well I give him some credit for being consistent - unfortunately the 1st duty of a Prime Minister is to defend the country - oh wait a minute he's defending Russia so that makes sense if he wants the UK to be a part of Russia

Trump is the guy making it happen. If he didn't want to launch any attack, there wouldn't be one. QED.

Well, it's still not proven, is it?
Boris backtracking on what he said about Porton Down:

OK, so Macron is claiming he egged Trump on to attack, so that's good of him (!)

He's also the guy who was pulling out of Syria last week. What he says barely holds good to the end of the day.

More fake news
What Macron actually said was - he persuaded Trump to
limit the attack to chemical weapons facilities.

Says the OPCW! The clue was in the statement!
Or are you saying the Guardian is reporting fake news?

No, I'm saying you didn't read it properly.
That's not a quote from the OPCW
