"Pentagon: 'Civil war' inadequate term for Iraq war". So what do you think is a better term?

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A new Pentagon report said some elements of the war in Iraq fit the definition of civil war, but the term "does not adequately capture the complexity of the conflict."

The war in Iraq has been characterized by fighting between the majority Shiite Muslim sect and the minority Sunni Muslims, who were in power under Saddam Hussein's regime.

But the report also cites Shiite-on-Shiite violence; al Qaeda and Sunni insurgent attacks on coalition forces, and "widespread criminally motivated violence" as features that complicate the designation of civil war.

The quarterly report, which is mandated by Congress, said attacks and casualties documented for the last three months of 2006 are the highest since the war began four years ago.
