Bush's 'coalition of the willing' are losing their will

First Spain said it was getting out, then Poland threatened to leave early, and on Friday the South Korean Ministry of Defense announced that it will not send its troops to the area of Iraq that U.S. commanders had requested, although it said it would position them elsewhere in Iraq.

U.S. commanders had counted on South Korea to send about 3,600 troops to the Kirkuk area of northern Iraq, to be part of a multinational force led by the U.S. Army's 1st Infantry Division. Without the Koreans there, the Pentagon might have to find another U.S. ground unit to fill the gap.

el - Other small countries are also likely to pull out this year including, Netherlands, Guatamala and Nicaragua.
