There are no "rebels" anymore. They were initially an extremely small western-backed force and the vast majority have defected to much larger Islamist groups. The moderate rebellion was put down a long while ago. It is more or less a straight up fight between Assad and Islamists now.
It's a checkmate situation and the US got played by Syrians themselves but doesn't want to admit it yet.
