Did the “allies” lack of response to Axis powers aggression before WW2 help cause WW2?
There wasn’t actually a lack of response – the response was appeasement, and it was this policy of appeasement which helped cause WW2 – Hitler believed the Allies would never go to war, and always back down;he didn’t believe GB and France would go to war over Poland, but he was wrong, so WW2 started.
