The Allies had relatively little to do with it. Soundly defeated in North Africa, Mussolini began to be deeply doubted by his own inner circle - and by that same time, the average Italian had come to despise him. He was relieved of his command and office, and at the very end of the war tracked down and shot by Italian partisans.

Hitler feared the Jews because of their political and financial power. He also feared being overthrown by others.
Answer It is rather odd but he just gave it up. Mussolini had been sick for a long time. On 6 Jully 1943, the Counsel called a meeting to discuss sharing Mussolini's powers. A group of 15 were planning to restore the power of the Grand Counciel and remove Mussolini. They had their usual long discussions late into the night on 24th. King Emanuel proposed to replace Mussolini. They voted to remove him. Mussolini demanded a private meeting with the King. In their meeting the King made it clear that Mussolini's rule was over. Mussolini humbly accepted his fate. Upon leaving their meeting, guards placed him in custody and he was wisked away to a secret location. At 10:45pm, the radio annonced the end of Mussolini's rule.
Yes. In world war two Italy fought with germany. Their leader was Benito Mussolini, who was executed at the end of the war
The fact that Fascist opposition against the invading Allies quickly crumbled and that Italy started suing for peace or at least an armistice. The Grand Council of the Fascist Party had by then already deposed Mussolini as its leader, and the King had fired him as Prime Minister. The Nazis did not break ties with Mussolini at that point. Surrender of Italy to the Allies would mean that Germany faced immediate invasion from the south. So the Nazis forcibly reinstated Mussolini and used him as a pretext to replace the crumbling Italian defence by a strong German army. Mussolini was kept in power by the Germans until the very end of WW 2. Only when the German troops finally retreated they left him to his fate. Mussolini was discovered when he tried to flee in a German convoy, was arrested and shot.
Yes, that did happen. In 1943, just as the Allies were about to invade Italy, the Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini was removed from power and arrested by the King of Italy. The new prime minister, Pietro Badoglio, began negotiations with the Allies to surrender and switch sides. In early September 1943, Italy officially "surrendered" to the Allies and declared war on Germany. However, Italy was split in half- the southern half ruled by the Italian government, and the northern half ruled by Mussolini (who had been rescued from imprisonment) and his German friends- so the war did not end for Italy until May 1945.
Benito Mussolini had a great deal of enemies during his lifetime because of his fascist ideals and his alliance with Hitler. However, he was a charismatic man and had many followers and supporters during his revolt and leadership of Italy.
