From my experiences in Wedding (not sooo long ago), I can imagine some other reasons as well:
- For or against the Hells Angels
- For or against the Bandidos
- For or against the Turks
- For or against the Moroccans
to name only a few.
Wedding so bad that even the Police avoid to get to some places there. Every street is in the hands of one of the above and there is all kinds of organised crime there.
We should not forget about this context.
Sources? Just goggle "Bandidos and Berlin" or one of the other plus "organised crime"
Edit: I had my experiences with some of them...

If they were striking in the context of a rocker war, they hardly would meet within a mosque for their conspiratory meeting.
Scale of the planned attack seems to rule out gang war and organised crime as well.
Police explicitly now (according to a recent report in Die Welt) mentions an Islamic background as motivation.
