    I have been wondering lately what this war will go down in history as. The Second Gulf War or GW II? I think we call it that right now for convenience. I know this isn't an important issue, but i have been wondering if what we're fighting is GW II or maybe something like "the Iraqi war." Any thoughts? I'm just really curious. Please don't go off on a partisan tangent, just the name would be great. Thanks

    i wouldn't say it's GWII or the Second Gulf War. Seeing as GWI was more of a liberate kuwait deal and this time we're actually trying to remove saddam.

    the washington times has an article where they consider it a continuation making it GWII http://www.washtimes.com/world/20030129-38329037.htm

    if you're considering it some sort of continuation then i'd classify it as getting over the hangover from GWI and finishing the job keeping it GWI. but it's a gaggle between the war on terror, the war on procrastination and the war for ratings.

    i'd call it Saddam II.
