"What about this video of them doing it?"
Looks like an improvised piece of crap artillery of some kind fired by guerrillas. There's no reason to believe that the devices are chemical weapons, and from the looks of them, they're not. The sparse captions appear to be in Arabic. Even if Freepers read Arabic, there's no evidence that the source of the captions is credible.
If the anti-Assad guerrillas had chemical weapons that could kill nearly 1500 civilians over a large area and in separate buildings, the gas would have been delivered by air, artillery or fogging trucks--not by improvised junk. Chemicals capable of such numbers of kills (including indoors) in wide, builtup areas are difficult to develop.
