During WW1 alot of fighting was done on french land and because of this a lot of damage was caused to France's industry and farming. As Germany had 'lost' the war Clemenceau decided that it was Germany who were to blame for the damage done to france. He wanted Germany to pay reparations for the damage caused to the land and he wanted them to face the consequences, he wanted them to give up land limit the size of their army and accept the war guilt Much of the fighting of WW1 was done between Germany and France on French territory and clemenceau along with the rest of the French wanted revenge for the damage done to France(1.5 million French soldiers dead along with 300,000 French civilians), So he felt the need to impose harsh policies and reparations on Germany in the treaty of Versailles
The war guilt clause forced Germany to take all the blame for World War I.
No Hitler did not blame the Jews because he didn't just not like them? He blamed them because he needed an escape rout instead of Germany being blamed and the Jewish people didn't have a government to do anything about it so they were helpless.

Germany was forced to take all the blame for World War I as dictated in the Treaty of Versailles.
they had to blame it on someone, so why not Germany?

Japan, too.
Yes because Germany invaded Poland and Hitler committed suicide so yes they should blame Germany No, no, no. You can not blame a whole country for one mans mistakes. That's what Hitler did to the Jews, and that's what you're doing to the Germans. If you want someone to blame, blame Adolf Hitler. Blame Joseph Goebbels. Blame Hermann Goering. But not Germany.
The Jews.
It depends on which war. If you are asking about World War 1, I would say no. I think Austria-Hungary should get most of the blame. In World War 2, I would say Germany was to blame, but I will also add that other countries were headed for war anyway regardless of anything that Germany did.
Germany
Germany was largely blamed for World War 1. The Treaty of Versailles, signed in 1919, placed full responsibility for the war on Germany and its allies and imposed large reparations on them. This blame contributed to the political and economic instability in Germany during the post-war period.
