The "War"


Part of the problem here is that the war in Iraq is usually thought of as a
single war in Iraq. But there have been at least three wars in Iraq since 2003 –
the U.S.-led war against Saddam Hussein’s Baath Party regime, the civil war
between Sunni and Shia militias, and the insurgencies against government and
international forces waged by a constellation of guerrilla and terrorist groups.
All three wars are distinct from each other, and two of the three are already
over.
