Although Wilhelm tried to stop his generals from mobilizing the German Army in 1914, the way he conducted himself and the fact he was a known militarist meant that he was blamed for the outbreak of WW1. Wilhelm wanted to follow the Schliffen plan, which meant attacking France, the weakest ally, first. However, he did not want Britain to become involved in the war, and they had stated that if France was attacked, Britain would delcare war on Germany.
