Nostradamus has predicted:

Defection of the Italians
The Germans alone against the Allies.

According to my own method of interpretation,

Quatrain II-72

Armée Celtique en Italie vexée,
De toutes parts conflit & grande perte...
 Romains fuis, ô Gaule repoussée!
Près du Thesin Rubicon pugne incerte.


 Celtic army in Italy vexed,
Everywhere, conflict and great losses
 Romans flee, to the Gauls repelled,
Near the Thesin Rubicon uncertain battle.

Quatrain VIII-9

Pendant que l'Aigle et le Coq à Sauone,
Seront unis, Mer, Levant et Ongrie:
...L'armée à Naples, Palerne, Marque d'Anconne,
Rome, Venise par Barbe horrible cri.


While the eagle and the cock in Savona,
Will be united Sea, East and Hungary:
...The army in Palermo, Naples, the Marches of Ancona,
Rome, Venice by Barbe horrible scream.



Analysis:
celtique

vexée
Marque d'Anconne

Barbe




horrible cri
 		Celtic. Relating to the Celts. They (the Celts) originated (c.1500 B.C.) in S.W. Germany. (New Webster's Dictionary)
vexed. In the sense of humiliated, but also in the sense of twarted.
the Marches of Ancone. Ancient part of the Pontifical States in central Italy. The Marches cross many provinces including the province of Ancone.
Beard. The word Barbe with a capital B suggests an individual with a name that sounds like it or again the word barbarian. As the word seems to relate to all the towns in the quatrain, Barbe would then be an apocope of barbare (barbaric) Here we have a barbaric horde, and the capital B only shows the amplitude of the barbarism.
horrible scream.

Interpretation

After the armistice, the Germans occupy Italy,
There is fighting and loss of life...
In Naples, Palermo, the Marches of Ancone and Venice,
The barbaric Germans destroy and burn everything in their way.


History

Yesterday's ally is transformed into an enemy
and the Wehrmacht has become an army of
occupation; in Saint-Peter's Place, these paras
behave as if they were in a conquered country.
When Italy signs the armistice, (Armée celtique en Italie vexée) the Germans take revenge on the Italians and occupy all major cities where they are stationed. Rome was one of the first to suffer the wrath of the Germans:
Rome is now occupied. At the same time the nazis were engaged in hopeless fighting on the Volturno, the town itself was a victim of an increasing series of torments, exaction and violences that lasted thirty-five weeks. One after the other, the calamities of war felt on the capital... Given over defenseless to a ferocious army rabble, the town suffered the worst devastations, combings, lootings and famine. No place was secure, neither private homes nor churches or convents. The Germans and the fascist police did not miss an opportunity to enter the homes, day and night, and capture men and properties. (De toutes parts conflit et grande perte)
(Translation F.L. - Mémorial de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale- Tome 3 - Sélection du Reader's Digest)

Throughout Italy, people rise up in foce to fight the germans:
Italie, 30 septembre, 1943
The allied troops arrive in Naples. In the town, the people rise up against the german garrizon Thjere is fighting in the streets and hundreds of deaths...
Palermo, July 22, 1943
The allies triumph in Sicily,Patton's 7th army have hurtled down the mountains and invaded the coast to capture the town and put to rout the german forces that flee in a total disorder... (par Barbe horrible cri).
Rome, October 6, 1943
The nazis pillage Rome and its treasures.
Herman Goring 's henchmen go shopping. Lists in hand, they systematically pillage the museums and churches of Romeand and send the spoils of war to Germany... Putting the pressure on their former partners, nazi paratroopers have surrounded the Vatican. Rumor is that the Pope has sent a sealed letter to the Cardinals in case he should be arrested.
(Chronique de La Seconde Guerre Mondiale - Jacques Legrand)
