The major manufacturers of nerve gas like Sarin are Iran, Korea, Russia, China and Syria.

The shelf life of Sarin is short and measures in weeks and I doubt that the rebels have access to the complex storage procedures needed to extend that life.

Its just as likely that the Rebels took it from Syrian bunkers.

What's the America reaction though on the whole game changer thing if it is the rebels?
The US is still saying that it was Assad and likely not the rebels, but the UN is sticking to their version too.

Carla del Ponte is an idiot though. She has a history or trying to equally distribute guilt and has been caught in lies before.
