If debt is the core problem, going to war isn't the solution.

It wasn't so much debt as it was lack of foreign reserves. Germany was heavily dependent on imports, especially for food, iron, and other non-ferrous metals. They were running out of foreign currency to pay for them, and needed the stuff to function. Conquering people and forcing them into an economic union with Germany " solved" the problem.

didn't Germany export a lot of weaponry to fund imports?

Not nearly enough to maintain solvency. By 1936 onward, almost all of it is going to re-arming the Wehrmacht.

The plan was to go to war from the beginning. The fact that the debt would be rendered insolvent was just part of that plan. The whole thing was a ponzi scheme that could only ever have ended in war from the first MEFO bill issued. Hitler wanted his total war. Debt was just a jewish number. Why care?

The Dawes and Young plans of 1924 and 1929 were designed to grant Germany access to foreign (American) reserves in order to fund its government and the obligatory war debts.

That was before the Great Depression and before Germany was ruled by the Nazis. Immediately after the Depression Hoover placed a memorandum on all debt payments leading to the Lausanne Conference where the Allied powers agreed to stop pressing germany for reparations as it went through a major financial crisis. The Nazis refused to pay a dime.
