It really kind of is.
Anyone should wonder why some people like Mr. Cameron are in such a hurry to start an attack. One can argue that Obama is in a way forced to act because he set a "red line" and must act now, but why Mr. Cameron? Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz suggests that Mr. Cameron is actually trying to use "Syria to return [UK] to global center stage". (Their latest headline btw is: "U.S.: If we need legal justification for strike, we'll produce one on our own" - which I think is funny, for it sounds a bit like the US declared that it would invent evidence if necessary - similar to when Putin said after it became clear that Iraq has no WMDs ("If I were the United States, I would have found WMDs!")
Some people already demanded a military strike before the UN investigators even began to work, claiming that...
a) it was obvious that Assad is behind the attack
and
b) because it was so obvious who is responsible, the syrian army would have destroyed any evidence before they arrive anyway
...which is just bullshit, because it's practically impossible to destroy all evidence of a chemical weapons attack.
The investigators have not released their report yet (it's expected to be released at the weekend, if I'm correct - the investigators are leaving the country on saturday), but as far as I know they've already stated that they indeed found "certain chemical substances", but they didn't say what kind of substance they actually found yet.
