Well obviously it isn't a battery issue. Stop barking up that tree.

You said earlier that you were going to check for power making it to the solenoid. Did that ever happen? You never followed up. If power is making it to the control terminal on the solenoid, look no further - your starter motor or solenoid are toast. If no power to the solenoid control terminal, get out your wiring diagram and start tracing it back to the start switch and see where you lose the start signal.
