See, that is an ugly accusation and you have no grounds whatsoever to make it. The government in Spain changed as a result of the election, and the new government decided it was not in its best interest to keep troops in the Middle East just as the previous government decided it was. That doesn´t make them any more or less backstabbing than any other government in the planet.

And, BTW, the journalist was in a hotel. Not an insurgent bunker.
