After Hitler took over Germany, he began to violate the Treaty of Versailles. It was not fear that prevented Germany from occupying the Rhineland as an example. France and Great Britain were counting on negotiations with Germany to prevent a major war. Therefore, if the violation was small. such as the Rhineland, the two allies were not that concerned. They also had the belief that Hitler could be contained by appeasement and took him on his word that he did not want a war.

Why did the US want to aid western Europe?

In layman's terms: After the First World War Germany got a really raw deal this was a contributing factor to the Second World War, so the U.S was afraid of a third one and they gave western Europe loans to ensure stability and prosperity. Also they were afraid that weak, poor European countries would be more susceptible to communist revolution.
