"The Nazi's" had nothing to do with it. It was exclusively driven by Hitler's thoughts and he absolutely wanted war. Not necessarily what he actually go in 39 which was something of a shock to him, but there is no doubt he expected war with England and eventually probably America down the road. Russia was a given as well.
