With reference to your point about Hitler, I believe that people weren't so much as fooled as convinced by him. Furthermore, it wasn't just only when he started the Holocaust that he was considered evil. After all, it was his invasion into Poland that more or less catalysed WWII to begin with, and not because the other nations disliked his treatment of Jews.
As for why the other countries took too long to intervene? It was partially because most felt guilty for the harshness of the Treaty of Versailles, which basically screwed Germany over quite well. Also, there were other things to consider at that time as well like the Great Depression which the other countries were more concerned over.
In my opinion though, as much as I think the idea of war in itself is rather dumb. I think at this point in the development of the world, it still remains inevitable at some point or another, as it would solve crises that pure negotiation cannot.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
