Bill,

I know of no open source / published estimate of traffic to the camps from the UK and I'd be surprised if the French were open to this.

Valid point about
summer adventure camp
and IIRC Guido Steinberg referred to that in an article I've linked here before. I've read a few papers on foreign fighters and only rarely is leaving the process of radicalisation / training mentioned. Try this for more:http://www.washingtoninstitute.org/p...cyFocus101.pdf
