Britons Make Up Most Foreign Fighters in ISIS

According to the commander of the Free Syrian Army, a good majority of the foreign fighters within ISIS in Syria are Britons. [quote]Britons make up most of the foreign members in Syria's most violent terror group, a senior rebel leader says. In a letter to The Times, Brig-Gen Abdulellah al-Basheer of the Free Syrian Army asks for help in curbing the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. He claims the group attacks opposition forces, not the Assad regime [b]UK fighters are involved in activities including beheadings, crucifixions and ill-treatment of women, he adds.[/b] [/quote]Emphasis added. What do you make of this? There could be anywhere from [url=http://www.washingtoninstitute.org/policy-analysis/view/up-to-11000-foreign-fighters-in-syria-steep-rise-among-western-europeans] 400 to 2000[/url] Europeans fighting in Syria right now. What do you think Western governments should do to mitigate the influx of foreign fighters, which undoubtedly pose a huge security threat?
