The brothers claim that Shiites’ houses and business were marked with writings “off with traitors” or “off with Iran” or simply marked them with a cross and then burned down and thrown stones at.
“They started to beat up our kids at school. My daughter is eight years old. She was told that she cannot go to school with other children; they called her a dirty unfaithful non-Muslim. That’s what mothers of other children tell them about our kids – that they are dirty non-Muslims. So they don’t talk with our kids and beat them up. There has never been anything like this before. Never,” said one of the wives. Both young women are distressed, as pale as a ghost.
They believe Al Jazeera and Al Arabiya have become a kind of control centers with great influence over what people do. But besides those two, there are two other TV channels, which spread blatant libel and outright instigate viewers against the Shia 24 hours a day: Al Wisal and Al Safa. Refugees accuse these two networks of orchestrating the massacres.
“A Shiite is a thug by definition, so it’s a good thing to kill them – that’s what they tell the people,” said Muhammad. “Rebel snipers shoot our children, and then they blame it on the military. The army came to our village for one day, but they were polite and didn’t harm anyone. And when the rebels came, they enveloped the village and set up their checkpoints, where they check every passing villager against their lists. They carry out exemplary executions to intimidate us locals: cut people up, atrociously, and leave their mutilated corpses lying in the middle of the village. They plant bombs in Shiite neighborhoods. My cousin, who had never had anything to do with the government, is now held captive. What for? None of the Shiites in our village are police or army officers, but they are still designated villains. So are pro-government Sunnis, but they are hated even worse than the Shiites, for they are looked upon as traitors.”
The family initially had to flee their home village and take refuge on the outskirts of Damascus.

The articles I linked to have dropped down the google results for the search "Syria Chemical Weapons" and only one new report appears. That being an article on the Trumpet.com (a US Christian site) which only refers to the government using them...No mention of the report of the rebels using them...

The Philadelphia Trumpet is a monthly news and prophecy magazine published by the Philadelphia Church of God (PCG). The editor-in-chief is Gerald Flurry, who is also the leader of the PCG and characterizes the magazine as the successor to The Plain Truth magazine when it was under the aegis of the Worldwide Church of God when run by the late Herbert W. Armstrong. The only advertisements in the magazine are for various pamphlets and booklets published by the PCG, for the Armstrong College Bible Correspondence Course, and a list of broadcast times for The Key of David. The Trumpet reports on worldwide events as seen through the lens of Bible prophecy as taught by the PCG.

The Philadelphia Church of God (PCG) is an international church based in Edmond, Oklahoma. PCG traces its roots to the Worldwide Church of God (WCG) founded by Herbert W. Armstrong and teaches a "new revelation" which its founder, Gerald Flurry, says God has shown to him from the Bible since Armstrong's death. It was founded with the stated purpose to continue Armstrong's teachings, which were repudiated by WCG after its founder's death in 1986,[1] as it embraced Christian beliefs like the Trinity that had formerly been rejected

Armstrong proclaimed that behind world events during his lifespan loomed various Biblical prophecies, and that he was called by God as an 'Apostle' and end-time 'Elijah' to proclaim the Gospel of God's Kingdom to the World[4] before the return of Jesus Christ.

British Israelism: Armstrong taught a form of British Israelism, which is the belief that those of Western European descent, notably England (Ephraim) and the United States (Manasseh), are direct descendants of the ancient northern Kingdom of Israel. ]
