Denial: Syrian President Bashar al-Assad spoke to Charlie Rose in an exclusive interview where he said that he had no knowledge of a chemical weapons attack and that no such attack could be proved . While he insists he had nothing to do with the chemical weapons attack on the suburbs of Damascus last month, 'he does accept some of the responsibility'. Mr Rose asked the president whether or not he felt any remorse. 'He said "Of course I do," but it did not come in a way that was sort of deeply felt inside. It was much more of a calm reaction of anybody who's a leader of a country would feel terrible about what's happened to its citizens,' Mr Rose said. Mr al-Assad said 'there's not enough . evidence to make a conclusive judgement' about whether the attack . happened or not, but also suggested that the rebels might have had . something to do with it. Sit down: Excerpts were aired Monday morning and the full interview will come Monday evening, the same day that President Obama will be trying to convince members of Congress to support a military strike against Syria . Threats: Assad said that if America makes an attack, they should 'expect everything' But the Obama Administration has been making a case counter to that claim. Today, . White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough said there was 'no question . in my mind' that President al-Assad carried out the August 21 attack . that seemed to use the toxic Sarin gas. The . administration has been circulating video of civilians taken after the . attack, showing them convulsing and struggling to breathe  - common . reactions of Sarin exposure. Secretary . of State Kerry said that the images and footage of the aftermath are . enough to prove that a chemical attack happened. Though some are . pointing out that it doesn't prove that the Assad regime carried them . out.

When asked by reporters in London what he thought about President Assad's claim that there wasn't enough evidence, Mr Kerry said 'the evidence speaks for itself'. President al-Assad on the other hand . wouldn't say whether he thinks Congress will vote to approve the . military strikes, only that they are  'as prepared as they could be' for . one. He also suggested that there would be a retaliation strike, but would not talk about what kind of response. In . the interview he gave a message to the American people 'that it had not . been a good experience for them to get involve din the Middle East'. Crimes against humanity: Congress is currently debating whether or not to authorize military strikes on Syria following the alleged August 21 chemical weapons attack that killed 1,400 including hundreds of children .
