Al Qaeda is taking advantage of the unrest in Syria and a senior Jordanian official tells CNN's Barbara Starr that there are nearly 1,500 al Qaeda members and sympathizers in the country.

As a result, Jordan is pumping up its security on the Syrian border with the help of U.S. forces. Barbara Starr reports live from Jordan this morning about this growing security concern.
