The French really wanted to use all of Germany's resources for the next 80 years (!!!) to live off their WW1 victory, now if that's not an all French provocation I dunno how to call it..

I agree, but one should add, for the sake of the propper spirit of this debate...this post serves to give an understanding, not to give apologies for what happend in WW2 on the german side.
