Why did the allies divert resources to North Africa before defending France?
The strategic location was not the whole of north Africa, but the Suez canal and the surrounding territory in Egypt.

Also, a German victory in Egypt might well have turned the Arab world to the side of Germany.
It may also be noted that Allied landings in Western/Northern Africa went basically unopposed. This was important as Italian diplomat Ciano predicted that this landing would inevitablely lead to a direct Allied assault on Italy.
