#2 The Germans may not have wanted the US to take out Saddam, but they have been cracking down on terrorist operations in Germany. This would be al-Qaedas response to that.

#3 The no BS reason the Islamists are pissed:

Dateline -- Frankfurt -- January 2003
The German authorities arrested two Yemeni men in Frankfurt on Friday, one of whom is suspected of being a fund-raiser for Al Qaeda.
The main suspect was identified as Sheik Muhammad Ali Hassan al-Mouyad, about 60 years old, and a man of some prominence in Yemen. He is the imam at a mosque in the south of the capital, Sana, and runs a sizable charity, providing food, clothing, education and medical care to the poor.

In his spare time, the shy and demure sheikh raised lots of DMs to send to his leeeetle friends in SW Asia. He also insulted his hosts after his arrest saying some very bad things about their choice of religion and friends. Oh well...I hope he likes stale brotchen.
