The violence appears to be spreading and the coalition just got less willing: "...Spain's incoming prime minister plans to withdraw his nation's 1,300 troops unless the United Nations assumes direct control. Honduran officials say they will pull their 370 troops out of Iraq during the summer. Some U.S. military officials in Iraq have speculated that El Salvador, Nicaragua and possibly the Dominican Republic, all parts of the Plus Ultra Brigade serving with the Spaniards, would also depart. Guatemala President Oscar Berger said his nation would not send troops as promised. President Bush was unsuccessful last month in lobbying the Dutch prime minister to keep his nation's 1,300 troops in Iraq beyond June. South Korea has announced that the 3,600 troops it promised to send to Kirkuk to relieve the United States' 173rd Airborne will not go because of U.S. pressure to participate in ''offensive operations.'' South Korean leaders said they would consider sending forces to other parts of Iraq to help rebuild the country." usatoday.com
