Why did Hitler defy the treaty of Versailles?

Hatred for the treaty is one of the things that bound the German people to Hitler and he milked it for all it was worth. The Treaty was seen as a shame upon the country because it kept Germany weak by limiting its military and was a constant reminder of Germany's loss in WWI. Hitler added his own spin that it was a reminder of the failure of the German homefront(instigated by Jews) to support the German Army in WWI.
