#1 Using data from interrogations, electronic eavesdropping, and statistical modeling, there are perhaps 20,000 Iraqis willing to use, or actively support, violence against the government.

I wonder if you took a similar population count of Southern California and how many you'd come up with who are or are willingly supporting the 'gangs' in their area. Think 20,000 is a little low? Concentrations found in select neighborhoods and prisons.

#2 Yeah. Just the the 18th Street gang in Los Angeles has 20,000 members.

#3 And next year there will be 10,000 .
And the year after that there will be 5,000.
And so on.
