Merely a note: The Wall Street Journal., of 24 March 2003, on pp. B1,
B3, has an article that is titled "Name That Op: How U.S. Coins Phrases
of War", by Rebecca Blumenstein and Matthew Rose.
The focus of the article is on phrases such as: Operation Iraqi
Freedom; Enduring Freedom; Just Cause; and the usage of those phrases by
the military, news organizations, and others.
As I read the article, I wondered about the extent to which other
countries are concerned with the naming of military actions.
