Berlins Føderal Efterretningsvæsen (BND) og det interne efterretningsvæsen, det Føderale Kontor for beskyttelse af forfatningen, (BfV) lægger skylden på stater i Golfen, som anklages for at finansiere religiøse grupper, moskeer, omvendelsesgrupper og konservative imamer.
En rapport skrevet af efterretningsvæsner bemærkede, at missionærgrupper, herunder Sheikh Eid Bin Mohammad al-Thani Charitable Association og Saudi Muslim World League, også var en del af Golfstaternes "langsigtede strategi til at udøve indflydelse". Rapporten nævnte også Kuwaiti Revival of Islamic Heritage Society (RIHS), en NGO der er forbudt i Moskva og Washington for påståede forbindelser til Al-Qaeda.
Belfast Telegraph citerede rapporten og skrev, at de nævnte organisationer er "tæt knyttet til regeringskontorer i deres hjemlande".

Der er også denne It's beyond question that prolonged fighting in Syria is US Empire's objective Når USA, mange EU stater og NATO støtter en langsigtet konflikt i Syrien, og støtter mange af de stater, der netop støtter voldelige islamiske grupperinger, så er det også med til at tegne et billede af de langsigtede mål i Europa.
RIHS and the Sheikh Eid association have denied the allegations, as well as Saudi ambassador Awwas Alawwad, who has said that the kingdom has "no connection with German Salafism" and does not export ministers or build mosques.
The report was leaked weeks after Berlin banned Die Wahre Religion (for The True Religion), a group that claims to spread its style of religion "in a modern form and with the help of new media."
After raiding 190 of the group's offices in 60 west German cities, Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere told reporters in Berlin, "The translations of the Quran are being distributed along with messages of hatred and unconstitutional ideologies...Teenagers are being radicalized with conspiracy theories."
He added, "We don't want terrorism in Germany... and we don't want to export terrorism."
It has been estimated that roughly 850 people have traveled to Iraq and Syria from Germany to join militant fundamentalist groups like Daesh. Germany is particularly sensitive to homegrown terrorism following two attacks in July, including a suicide bomber that killed 15 people when he detonated himself. A video was later discovered of the bomber, a Syrian named Mohammed Daleel, pledging allegiance to Daesh, who later took credit for the bombing, calling Daleel a "soldier."
