NO - it wasnt a defensive war on Germanys part. PART of what started it was that Hitler wanted more land. Then of course the destruction of the Jews, which is what is focused on in today's history teaching (with good reason). Hitler was greedy and a mental basket case.

Expecting a repeat of WWI, the French adopted a defensive strategy - ie. Maginot Line. *They didn't fight at all, they got run over by Germany's blitzkrieg tactics.
