In one of the worst, yet little-known, tragedies to affect Italy, an estimated 300,000 men, women and children living in Trieste, Gorizia and the Istrian peninsula were forced from their homes between 1943 and 1945.
Up to 15,000 were then believed to have been tortured, shot or pushed to their deaths in gorges, called Foibe, in north-western Yugoslavia as part of Marshal Josef Tito’s attempt to cleanse the country of Italians.

You start by saying Italians are making themselves victims but the article states how many Italians, where they lived etc. etc. so no, not all Italians have suddenly changed their minds about ww2.
Remains have been found in an area which was under partisan control so they killed 'the enemy' it wasn't Mussolini. Why is this fact so hard for you to accept is beyond me, people get killed in wars, innocent ones. Life goes on and hopefully they are remembered no matter who they were. Nobody is rewriting history.
Lastly, there are memorial sites in Croatia for people killed in the death camps, they are also mentioned in history classes in middle school there, so your information is once again, incorrect.edit on 10-6-2013 by Exitt because: .
