 From CNN:

CNN also has obtained an al Qaeda document that spells out the terrorist 
group's plan to separate Spain from the U.S.-led coalition on Iraq.

The document was published on the main message board that is used by al Qaeda 
and its sympathizers last December.

The strategy spelled out in the document calls for using terrorist attacks to 
oust Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar's Partido Popular from power and replace 
it with the Socialists.

That, in turn, was expected to drive a wedge between Washington and Madrid and 
result in the withdrawal of Spanish military forces from Iraq.

"We think the Spanish government will not stand more than two blows, or three 
at the most, before it will be forced to withdraw because of the public 
pressure on it," the al Qaeda document says.

"If its forces remain after these blows, the victory of the Socialist Party 
will be almost guaranteed -- and the withdrawal of Spanish forces will be on 
its campaign manifesto."

The Spanish voters have given al Qaeda a victory and shown they have no cojones.
