Danon told the executive body that he was ready to expose the "classified information" for the first time, saying "Iran is currently controlling 82 thousand fighters in Syria."
The Israeli envoy claimed that the Islamic republic currently has more than "three thousand of its own Iranian Revolutionary Guard" in Syria. [ Source: Jerusalem Post (Read More...) ]

After my own research I concluded that it is impossible for the Pentagon to have numbered how many fighters Iran has control over in Syria. Notice: the article does not say 'Iranian fighters', it just says 'fighters'. The concluded number is probably the most fanciful wartime number I've ever heard, including the number of Viet Namese killed by U.S. soldiers during the Viet Nam war. By U.S. numbers, we wiped out the entire nation of Viet Nam twice over. Apparently somebody didn't know how to count.
