Deanna and all,
This may explain some of the increase of military activity in Germany.
It comes from MSN News.

"The northern port city of Hamburg is home to about 80,000 Muslims of various nationalities. Security experts say Germany is regarded as a safe haven for Islamic extremist groups.
Authorities said three of the suspected hijackers who had been on the passenger lists were members of the Hamburg-based group. Two of them and a further suspect had studied electronics at the Technical University in the city's Harburg district.

A Hamburg state police chief, Gerhard Mueller, said: "We have in the search for a suspect of Moroccan origin searched an apartment in Hamburg and provisionally detained one person, a man."
