The most accurate response is: Germans hated the Versailles treaty and supported Hitler's actions to defy it.

The Treaty of Versailles, which ended World War I, imposed harsh penalties and reparations on Germany. Many Germans viewed the treaty as humiliating and excessively punitive, leading to widespread resentment. This discontent played a crucial role in Adolf Hitler's rise to power, as he promised to overturn the treaty, restore Germany's former glory, and expand its territory.
