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.

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.
