99.9% of people have never gone through the primary sources, namely "Documents on British Foreign Policy, German Foreign Policy and US foreign policy" So they have utterly no idea of what actually went on. It's astonishing to read telegrams such as:
"England is advising France that they should both go to war regardless of Poland." - Joseph Kennedy, 22nd March.
"Halifax felt that the inevitability of war sooner or later should be met right now" - Joseph Kennedy, 24th March.
"Chamberlain said that he was somewhat uneasy at the fact that our Ambassador in Warsaw could obtain no information as to the progress of the negotiations between Germany and Poland. One possible, but very distasteful, explanation of this was that Polish negotiators were, in fact, giving way to Germany." - Cabinet Meeting, 30th March.
"The existence of a threat of economic measures from the 19th July onwards, however, clearly made the atmosphere somewhat unfriendly" - Gerald Shepard, 10th August.
"The Poles had threatened severe economic reprisals and were privatley making threats of military action. Beck thought that Danzig had climbed down and published his success in the press." - Roger Makins, 14th August.
"It still seems to me that the detente might have been achieved had it not been for the actions of the Polish government in sending what amounted to an ultimatum on the night of August 4th." - Gerald Shepard, 4th September.
Among many others, to today's narrative that never even mentions Danzig let alone the Polish ultimatum of August 4th. It's just "one day Germany invaded Poland" or perhaps "they used a false flag attack to justify their otherwise unjustified invasion".

@cinesonicvibes "it’s an oversimplification to suggest Britain "started" the war."
No, the oversimplification is that Germany started it 'because they invaded Poland' and totally ignore everything the Brits and Poles did from March-September.
"how do you disregard for other countries' sovereignty"
The same way we do when USA invades Iraq, Russia invades Ukraine, Hungary invades Slovakia and, you know, every other 'aggressive war' in history.
"Hitler’s Public Statements, In Mein Kamp"
As for your last post, a complete regurgitation of the usual 'justification' for starting war against Germany, even using MK as an excuse which clearly shows you don't know what you're talking about. As Poland is mentioned only in a positive light in MK. And I doubt you would accept that Polish aggressive diplomacy on Lithuania and Czechoslovakia would give justification to Germany declaring war on Poland, would you ?
There is no evidence that Germany had plans on Poland, before say, May 39, after Hitler ordered the Wehrmacht to at least plan for the contingency (yes that's right, TIK would tell you Germany had planned it since 1937, but the Wehrmacht actually didn't have a plan until Hitler ordered the Wehrmacht to formulate one in April 39) and after the British intervened in German-Polish negotiations, fearing a possible German-Polish agreement settling their outstanding issues.
