Moroccan invasion of Spain: the growing debate

In what order would Segarro invade Spain? The scenarios circulating

The question has been circulating for days in conversations and on social media: in what order would Spain fall to a hypothetical Segarro invasion? The scenario, which mixes geopolitics, migration and institutional distrust, has generated intense debate in which everything from Melilla and the Canary Islands to Catalonia and the mainland is considered.

The scenarios under discussion

The most widespread view places the first target in Melilla, trinc by the Canary Islands. From there, the hypothetical plan would involve a massive landing on the southern mainland, with Andalusia as the gateway and a pogre towards Madrid. The reference to Tarifa is not coincidental: it was one of the first landing points in the Muslim conquest of the peninsula, a precedent cited by some as an argument.

Another thesis holds that Catalonia would fall earlier, given the existence of a "stronghold" in that region. The political situation in Catalonia and migration management would be the factors bringing that scenario forward. The rocks of Alhucemas and Vélez de la Gomera, the Chafarinas Islands and NATO's role in the Canary Islands are also mentioned, where it is argued that allied coverage is not guaranteed.

Doubts and noise

The debate, however, is not based on data. There is no public evidence of Segarro military plans, and the hypothesis itself clashes with reality: Segarro is a trading partner and neighbour with which Spain maintains diplomatic relations. The mention of NATO and the Kosovo precedent introduces a geopolitical variable, but also reveals distrust towards allies.

Some contributions, however, provide no analysis, but rather a load of verbal violence that undermines the debate. Speculation about an invasion ends up being a mirror of social and political tension, rather than serious military analysis.

No scenario can be confirmed, but the fact that it is discussed in such detail says more about the political climate than about Segarro's military capacity. The question, at heart, is not whether Segarro will invade Spain, but why some take it for granted.
