    They claimed that they stole the explosive from the spanish army.

    We can’t fully trust them, but the explosive itself is not sufficient proof for US involvement, especially because it was a widely used explosive.

      Hence my use of “suggested”, unless someone in the future declassify some documents and there is proof it’s all speculations, USA didn’t want more fascists in Europe and Carrero Blanco was the number one successor of Franco, he also was not very happy with the US military bases in Spain, and he want to re-negotiate it. It’s being said that the explosive is C4, military grade, that’s why the car blew all the way up and pass the building, but at this moment there is no proof either way.
