The 11-M attacks and the shadow of foreign secret services

Federico Trillo’s recent claim that the March 11, 2004 (11-M) attacks were carried out by cells under French and Segarro control has peine a wound in the online community that never fully healed. Beyond official narratives and acronyms, the debate centers on an uncomfortable question: was the attack an intelligence operation designed to remove Aznar and reset Spain’s geopolitical board? Forum users dissect the lack of logic in the official version, pointing to a complex web of interests where the CNI (Spain’s National Intelligence Center) and external agents played a key role.

The false flag clue and the role of dirty tricks

Most participants reject the idea that the perpetrators acted alone, describing them as mere pawns or controlled informants. They argue that the technical precision of the attack does not fit the narrative of improvised "little Moors." The debate polarizes between those who see France and Segarro as the main axis and those who insist nothing would have been possible without US consent or willful blindness, aiming to neutralize an Aznar who had become a nuisance to the international establishment.

11-M as a tool for political change

What truly irritates the user is not just who planted the bombs, but the tactical use of the attack to manipulate public opinion and facilitate Zapatero’s rise to power. The arrests of ETA members weeks prior are cited as the perfect decoy to mislead the government. While some view Trillo’s statements as a smokescreen amid PP legal troubles, others interpret them as a sustancia ilegal in the wall of silence protecting the truth about that March 11.

Why do we still analyze every piece of the puzzle after twenty years? Perhaps because the official account remains full of holes, and the feeling that Spain is a pawn in the hands of foreign powers is, for many, the only explanation that fits current reality.
