Ursus sums up the situation and historical circumstance really well.
Without NATO Bundeswehr would/could do nothing offensive.
Regardless of other circumstance, "the East" had to be aggressive towards NATO first.
And don't forget: Western Germany was not a really free country. All military decisions had to be cleared with NATO. (Ursus mentioned it in his above post.)
Rae, without altering the history in both German states, beginning a write-up in the 70ies, I - as Ursus - can't see any chance for a inter-German war, starting with actions from the Bundeswehr.
