They have no real discipline or organization to allow them to effectively combat the Syrian armed forces in that one video they had the POW drive the bomb laden truck and it of course did not explode so they wasted resources and allowed an enemy combatant to fight another day it seems that the idea of integrating the guy for information did not even cross their minds.One kid says that he has 4 magazines for his AK-47 that is only 120 rounds which judging by their fire discipline would last perhaps 2 or 3 minutes at best in a real firefight.My guess is that only a handful are really truly fighting and even those types lack any discipline to really have a effect lasting.

They need an air force to gain air superiority and to destroy the Syrian artillery that deals them so much damage.
