Why did churchill believe that Italy was the soft underbelly of Europe?
Winston Churchill referred to Italy as the "soft underbelly of Europe" because he believed that invading Italy would be a strategically advantageous way to weaken Axis powers. He thought that Italy's military position was vulnerable, given its lack of strong defenses and the fatigue of its forces. Additionally, a successful campaign in Italy could potentially knock Italy out of the war and open a path to Germany, thereby aiding the overall Allied strategy in Europe. This belief led to the Allied invasion of Sicily and mainland Italy in 1943.

In the words of General Clark, the soft underbelly of Europe turned out to be one tough old gut.
