It has been speculated that if the 1920 Washington Naval Treaty hadn’t been signed, by 1930 we would have been at war.

It has been speculated that if the 1920 Washington Naval Treaty hadn’t been signed, by 1930 we would have been at war. I took two courses in college in the 70s covering that area, 20th Century US Diplomatic History and WW2 History, but don't recall any such speculation. I'll research that some more to refresh my memory but another way of looking at that is the treaty merely delayed that which was going to occur anyway. If that's so, the benefit of hindsight says we'd have been better off dealing with Germany earlier rather than later. What are your thoughts in that vein?

Really, how?
