Germany rejects Versailles?

France goes west, the US then the UK refuses to continue the blockade after French forces starts marching toward Berlin and Hamburg. Anti-English sentiments in France over what is perceived as a betrayal and vise versa.
Poland declares war to Germany in exchange of more territorial concessions and support against the bolcheviks.
In Germany itself, they face guerilla from both right-wing and leftist forces, in France itself martial law have to be declared against left-leaning movements. The UK threatens blockade over the occupation of German ports, famines in some parts of Germany. Much anger against the collaborators with the French and Poles.
February 1920, when the UK decide to blockade France, France declares war.
Attempted insurrections in Germany and even in France itself, much anti-war demonstrations in the UK, war is forced to an uneasy end in summer 1920. Europe remains divided between the 2 powers hovewer.
1921, the UK and Italy support a coup in Austria, the coupists are divided hovewer and the UK and Italie decides to support a man called Adolf Hitler, to unite Austria then use Austria as a base to German guerilla against the Polish, Czech and French occupants.
White governement in exile is formed in Paris, French-Polish forces mobilises for an offensive against the bolcheviks.
France is radicalised by the brief war with Britain, the French military starts planning on the long therm for a war against the UK.
Some optimists even argues that by the 1950s, France will unit the continent and crush the British Empire, sweep the Atlantic from the british navy with a smaller but more advanced fleet, submitte England herself with air attack campaigns.

Thus, the foundations of WW2 are laid.

PHEW. I thought I was the only one thinking about things like that.

My idea was that France continues on, causing the treaty to go public in America, causing a massive uproar of anti-war and Anti-Ally protests. the U.S. drops out of the war, followed by Japan, who refuses to fight for anyone who considered them "inferior". Germany is able to keep people from protesting the war by using the treaty as propaganda. However, the Communist Party later uses it as their own propaganda to demonstrate the terror that capitalism can bring.

Italy decides to return to the Central Powers, deciding that if the Allies won't give up some of the Balkans, they will have to take some of Africa, instead. Italy then began sending troops into Germany to help stop revolts and protests along with using it's dreadnoughts to open up a small trade route through the Strait of Gibraltar, allowing more supplies to get to Germany. While the British Army attempts to get past Italy multiple times, Italy's MAS boats(quite small torpedo boats) proved too deadly in combat against the Dreadnoughts. The Italians soon sell the Germans the blueprints for the MAS boats, which could be constructed in near secrecy.

America signs a treaty with Germany, offering resources and supplies for the blueprints of it's U-Cruisers, military access(to fight the growing Communists) and the promise that they shall help create a new League of Nations. Surprisingly, no money was offered or taken by either side. The supplies and resources proved to be great help to the Germans, allowing them to stop the French advance. The treaty itself was met with mixed responses, some calling it traitorous, some calling it charitable, some calling it vain.

The U.K. is enfuriated, but continues fighting.

The German MAS boats begin dealing great damage to the blockade, allowing more supplies to reach Germany, along with a shipment of tanks. The lines stagnate once more, while Italy begins to build up forces to make an attack on the Suez Canal.

That's all I have. To be honest, I think that Italy joining would cause a focus on smaller ships, rather than the Battleships/Dreads.
