Just saw on a repeat of Sky News, the Political Editor of The Telegraph claiming the US already had "50,000 troops in the ME, and were shipping over a further 10,000 who would arrive in 1-3 weeks".
Where do these figure come from? Completely OTT and you would expect someone who is Pol Ed of the Torygraph to know her sh!t.
These journos would only have to look here at the airbridge to get an idea of what is happening.
