#1 Wow. A whole 2,000? The mighty Arab street speaketh again!

You what this actually means? There are a modest number of poorly trained, poorly equipped true believers who mostly took it upon themselves to cross the border, with some help from the Syrians.

They have little to no leadership, because Al Queda has been ripped to shreds. They'll be about as effective as they've been so far: minimal.

#2 It would be cool if she gave a number like 1238 foreign fighters and then later in the interview dropped the number to 1235 after looking at her watch and smiling fetchingly.
