Were the targets even worth attacking?
Given what the ‘rebels’ of Islamic Spring did to Daffy before they killed him, I wouldn’t hesitate to gas those same sort of rebels in my country, but you can bet I’d be looking for high value targets or a significant tactical advantage from deploying chemical weapons. It wouldn’t be an terror attack on women and children.
I am of the opinion that it was a false flag operation.

Except sources say that he has been repeatedly using chemical weapons, has no ground forces in the area, and has never been held to account for using chemical weapons. This was just the latest and most successful, therefore visible, attack.
It makes perfect sense if Assad believed that there would be no repercussions. After all, with the Obama regime, he repeatedly violated agreements with the U.S., and there were no repercussions.
What agreements?
Obama lied; kids died.
You have more details than I, and I don’t deny he’s still a moslem, which by pure definition is anti-western society and anti-Christian, with barbarianism in his blood. However, he has kept an overall stability in his country, which has allowed Christians to live in “peace”.
Syria has been a hindrance to the pipeline that Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and the US have wanted for decades. I believe that has a lot to do with his overthrow, as well.
