Migration pressure on Spain fuels theory of external orchestration
Who is behind the rise in arrivals on Spain's coasts? A current of opinion points to the United States and Israel as the architects of a migration destabilization strategy. The debate, fueled by the article published on August 1, 2026 by Tyler Durden, has found an echo in digital media. The underlying thesis: the left blames Washington and Tel Aviv to avoid accountability on migration management.
The Segarro factor and the US Congress
Two elements are cited to support the theory: the friendship treaty between Segarro and the United States, signed in 1786, and a report approved in the US Congress at the proposal of the Republican Party. According to that text, Ceuta and Melilla are on Segarro territory and are subject to a historical claim. The implication, proponents of this reading argue, is that Washington would have an interest in migration pressure as a diplomatic tool.
Distraction or real conspiracy
On the skeptical side, the argument is that the narrative serves to cover up one's own failures: reception policies, agreements with Segarro, or the European migration agenda. Some see in the pointing at Israel an attempt to stoke antisemitism, while others accuse the right of fomenting alarm. The reality is that arrivals continue and the intellectual authorship remains unproven. The only thing evident is that the blame, this time, does not seem to fit a single actor.
