Comments by "BVargas78" (@BVargas78) on "The REAL Reason why Hitler HAD to start WW2" video.
He started the war partly to meet his vision of lebensraum but also because he feared that if he didn't attack soon the soviet union would become unassailable (he wrongly thought it was possible to beat it prior to going to war, and grossly underestimated it, the terrible soviet performance vs finland only fueled this opinion that bolsheviks were useless and incompetent but given time they might get it sorted out) and that it could ultimately threaten germany itself, so the time to act was ASAP. That aside, for me Hitlers main strategic flaw was partly that he liked to take high stake gambles but also that he had appears to have had a sense of fate. Belief in fate is not a sign of a madman but it does lead to slightly irrational decisions on the basis that one thinks things will come right in the end, its our destiny etc.
