Why not validate it as part of document it's included in?

Let's say index.php includes menu-italiano.html. Validate index.php and
menu-italiano.html is validated at the same time.

You can't have two document type declaration in the same HTML document.

I prefer to put menus at the top of the HTML document, something like
this:

<h1>Main heading</h1>

<div class="menu">
<h2>Menu</h2>
<ul>
<li>Menu item</li>
<li>Menu item</li>
<li>Menu item</li>
</ul>
</div>

<div class="main_text">
<h2>Document text</h2>
<p>Blah, blah, blah...</p>
</div>
