I cannot fathom why the Italians didn’t seize Malta right off the bat when they entered the war. Malta had been a major British naval base for a hundred years. It lay athwart the shipping routes to Africa, even an amateur strategist like me could see it needed to be taken to secure supply lines.
It’s almost like the Italians were deliberately trying to tank their war effort.
