Hitler wanted to reclaim the long disputed Alsace-Lorraine region, which France had taken after the German defeat in 1919; but I don't think that he would have gone to war with France specifically for that objective if he could have achieved his objectives in Poland and the east without war with France and Germany; it was France and Britain who declared war on Germany. I don't claim to be an expert here, but I did read the excellent articles in the 13th edition of the Encyclopedia Britannia, which had the history of the war up to about 1940. I will look at your link on this however.
Hitler was aware of the defense promises France and England made and re-iterated to Poland. He chose war.
