How did president roosevelt cause adolf Hitler to attack Poland starting world war 2 in Europe?
The typical answer you will get is appeasement. However, a more thorough exploration into the events of the time shows that appeasement was merely a byproduct of the situation, rather than the cause as many would expect.
Using the policies of appeasement, leaders agreed to hand over land in order to prevent war. The effect was entirely the opposite. In this case, the problem was not the foreign policy, but the logic behind the foreign policy. Those leaders thought that a thug (Hitler) would keep his word. They grossly misinterpreted Hitler. In addition, another cause was that these leaders and their nations had not built the respect needed to stop a tyrant like Hitler.
The average person has a better grasp on the failures of appeasement after its great failure leading to WWII. However, we continue to see this losing strategy used in very recent history. For example, the Gaza Strip incident a few years back was very similar. The fundamental Muslims in the region said they would quit their fight against Israel in exchange for the contested Gaza Strip. President Obama urged Israel to surrender the land, claiming there would be peace. There are a great number of other examples, which everyone can still learn from.

What was the blitzkrieg attack on Poland like?
For Hitler's German Nazi army, by design it was their first overwhelming military success, to send morale among their soldiers soaring high - they were looking for a fight - however, it was obvious to everyone which army would win. Poland stood to defend democracy on principle to show the world they were not afraid and would not give up their indepedance without a fight. Hitler knew this would give his army a morale boost by having such an easy massive victory, even if it took several weeks longer than planned due to intense and unexpected Polish resistance fighting. Plus this victory would serve as an example to monger fear to the next countries who stood up in opposition to being taken over. Remember, several countries battered from WWI had even less of an army than Poland did, and couldn't even put up a fight. Austria, Hungary, and other countries simply handed themselves over to Hitler when he threatened them.
For the Polish National Army, it was Hell on Earth. So many were obliterated, tortured, murdered, but, they did so in fighting the good fight for democracy. There are written accounts of soldiers fighting to the bitter end, to the last man or two. Poland never surrendered to the Nazis, and its 1779 constitution and government were restored in 1991.
