Spain's. And then we are, of course, operating on the assumption that the voting results in any of these scenarios weren't tampered with (which is not really a safe assumption).

I guess my point is that there is more than one theory or explanation for any event, especially as regards the interests and agendas of the various global players. The intrigue is due to the complexity of these relationships, both the overt public ones as well as hidden ones. So it's difficult for us, sitting here, to say who might be behind any one event. The same complexity is present in human and group psychology. So formulas are dangerous. This is why intelligence "on the ground" is so important - to learn more about the specifics of each unique situation, the overt and covert relationships involved and to read the public mood.

They study us all the time....and it's much easier to manipulate people who define themselves narrowly, and don't allow for complexities. They are more predictable.

Perhaps this was a BFEE operation gone wrong, perhaps it was an EU operation gone right, or retribution from another country who felt betrayed by Spain, or al Qaeda/Islamic extremists, or a combination of two disparate interests teaming up for a mutually beneficial outcome...or none of the above. But I do feel sure we don't know the half of it.

That said...there is plenty of evidence that the BFEE misreads these signals all the time in their arrogance, and might have, indeed had a hand in the Madrid blasts, operating under the assumption it would benefit rather than topple the current Spanish leadership. Stories like this make me wonder.

Either these constant insults by BFEE is a brilliant attempt to stir things up toward some end that is not yet clear to the laymen, or such blind ignorance that it is beyond imagining.
