However, we must ask ourselves: why did the Duce undertake this attack against Greece and why did he choose the worst time for it? Is there perhaps no real harmony between the two partners anymore? Or is the Duce's patience torn because Hitler did not let him participate in the plundering of France? Did he want to hit the crook once? Maybe he wanted to keep Greece as a prey or perhaps exchange it for something else later. Since he made the attack without the support of Germany, it can be assumed that he did not want to be guilty of anything to Hitler.

They are mostly elite troops and many of them have bravely beaten themselves as "ebirgstreupten already in the previous world war. They would have done it again this time if they had had to defend their homeland. However, they could not do it in a war that was unjustly unleashed and which, in the case of an Axis victory, would have seen Italy only as a powerless slave of Germany.
