What the Allies should have done was to first invade Europe from the south, then storm through Italy, force them to surrender, and then invade northern Europe across the English Channel at great cost of lives. Then, they should have done all they could to push across Europe and eventually force Germany to surrender and capture all the Nazi leaders still alive and put many of them to death.

IIRC, that's pretty much what the Allies did. Once Rommel was defeated in North Africa, Patton and Montgomery drove into Sicily and into Italy. That was followed by the Normandy invasion, followed by ten months of horrific war across Western Europe into Germany.

Or, are you just trying to pull my leg? lol

I am impressed. Not many will figure out what you just stated.

I would add that possibly the allies should have first moved into North Africa while initiating a fight of containment, in the Pacific, against the japanese.
