Would a major wave of attacks by terroists (especially if they were Western Terrorists from European neighbours), or a insurgency in a neighbouring state spilling over into German soil with massive bloodshed on the German side as a result, that could've been easily averted/fought off had the German military not been so comparatively impotent, provide a proper impetus for discarding the antimilitarist attitude? Especially if the problem more or less repeats itself (e.g. one neighbouring insurgency after the other spill over into Germany)?
Highly doubtful. First, the reasoning would probably be to "fight the cause and not its symptoms". Second, it would have to take pretty much war like proportions as that is mostly the field of police special forces and not the Bundeswehr, which is, like for example the Japanese SDF, a defense army and even then allowing them to operate domestically is a bureaucratic nightmare.

Well, that's a bit of a conspiracy theory... I think the Germans themselves don't want any more of it for their own reasons.
(Also, who are 'we'? America? Britain? France? The USSR?)
