Minor point: Germans occupying a part of Germany is not exactly an aggressive
act.  Hitler's action in this case contributed to his popularity inside of
Germany.  the existance of the Rheinland situation allowed Hitler to gain
popularity among the German people.  Had that part of Germany stayed a part
of Germany after WWI, Hitler would have had no action to take and no
popularity to gain.

Another lesson in how to create enemies.  Think a bit about the future of
Iraq AFTER the possible war.  Who are we going to make mad at us?
