32、tional method has a great influence on a childs growingDgiving children apples will lead them to become criminalsBWhen the US started the war in Iraq a year ago, Spain was a firm supporter. But on April 18, the Spanish government started to remove its troops, becoming the first country in the US-led
33、 coalition (联军) to bring its soldiers home. The person behind this surprise move is the new Spanish prime minister, Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero. From the beginning, the 43-year-old former lawyer, knew the weakness of Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar and his hand-picked successor, Mariano Rajoy. Abou
34、t 90 percent of the Spanish people were against the war in Iraq and were unhappy that Aznar had taken them into it. So Zapatero promised: “If this party wins the election and the UN still cant take charge in Iraq, the new government will pull its 1.400 troops out of Iraq.” Despite focusing on this a
35、nd other Aznar mistakes, Zapateros chances of victory were still thin until the Madrid bombings.
