Oh this is getting upsetting. Wish we could just pay O to go home.
Love the proposal but implementation will be tough. More drastic measures might be needed.

Italy did not receive the reparations the “Allies” promised for her participation in WW1 and ended up a victor with 1 million dead and treachery from France, Britain and England. Add to this the Kellogg Briand Treaty which reduced Italy to a third rate power, and the hypocritical posturing of England, France and the USA who had colonial territories, but decided after WW1 that the new world order would only permit France, Britain and the USA to hold colonial assets.
I owe you bro
TREACHERY? Had not italy been given the Veneto by the central powers, as france took the cote d’azure from them. Had not Italy signed a binding alliance with the German powers, the famous triple alliance. Did not italy readily abrogate that solemn commitment and sell herself like a prostitute to france and England for what were just hollow promises? But it was just as well. Italy did more damage to the cental Europeans being allied with them in the 40’s than as an enemy in the teens.
No thanks douchbag
Italy lost over 1 million soldiers fighting the Great war and was denied the promises of territories in Germany and the Ottoman Empire by the Big Three and the Kellog Briand Pact resticting the size of naval forces reducing Italy to a third rate power after sacrificing sll of her blood and treasure to defeat the Huns and Ottomans for the allied powers.
