I don't get it.  Why does the troll want the Italians running Albania again like they did during WW II?
What were the Italians goal in WWII in SE Europe and where was it before the Soviets "liberated" the region in 1944? I heard that when the Soviets cut off the Greeks from the Nazis, the Greeks were able to liberate themselves before the Soviets came.

Nazis moved away from Greece when the Soviet invasion of Romania and Bulgaria threatened their communications with Germany. The Greek resistance was divided between communist and monarchic; when the Germans went away both factions started a civil war that lasted several years.
Italian goals in Albania weren't very different from those who motivated the invassion of Ethiopia in 1936. Imperialism, 'vital space', satisfaction for the Duce's ego... The 'wretched' Greek army gave a lesson to the Italian at the end of 1940, btw. The Germans invaded the Balkans in the spring of 1941, delaying the offensive against the USSR, which turned out to be fatal for their plans of concluding it before the winter. Finally, the Nazi's failure at the gates of Moscow was the beggining of the end for the German Reich.

Might someone occupy of the 'Albanian' troll?
