Aznar knows only too well that withdrawal was one of the Socialist&#8217;s objectives from the moment Spanish troops were sent to Iraq to help find the weapons of mass destruction and defeat Saddam Husein. Nevertheless, the argument he puts forward in the article published today is expected to be the PP&#8217;s main line of attack in the run up to the European elections.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to a survey published today by El Mundo, 67% Spaniards support Zapatero&#8217;s decision to withdraw Spanish troops from Iraq, while 23% disagree with the withdrawal.
