if you think that they want to go in to be humanitarian, you probably don't understand either of those countries motivations very well.

it is my understanding that france and germany's contracts we're mainly for building hospitals, roads, and infrastructure for the iraqi people, not for military hardware or know how. but the info you get probably consistantly ignore that :/
on the other hand..(blanket statement of capitalism) business is used to making money on whatever it can.. the profiteers have no nationalist boundaries and will attempt to get away with what they can whereever they can, so there's guilty parties on all sides. it's up to germans to expose and restrain german(or french) companies as it up to americans to do the same.
