I'd like to point out that according to the UN report, rockets were used as the means of deployment.
So the lack of delivery system is not an argument anymore: someone who had a delivery system used said system.
Any source for the rumour of Assad's brother giving the order? It's quite possible, the Assad family controls a lot of high ranking posts in the country.
