Neither previous nor edited text was really correct; rather omit than give wrong info.

Sep 22, 2016 at 18:20 | comment | added | Pere | Spanish civil war doesn't also comply as a three sided war. Some conflicts within the republican zone have been termed as "civil wars within the civil war", but there were clearly two sides with clearly minor conflicts within one side. The same could be said of the North Ireland conflict and the Algerian independence war. | |
Apr 30, 2016 at 8:05 | comment | added | WS2 | I don't believe that the Algerian and Northern Ireland circumstances that you quote were actually "three-party wars". In numerous post-colonial situations French and more frequently British forces stood between two warring factions, essentially vying to occupy the vacuum being vacated by Britain. British soldiers stood between Moslems and Hindus in India, between Jews and Arabs in Palestine, between Greeks and Turks in Cyprus, Communists and Nationalists in Malaya, and then Catholics and Protestants in Ireland. And that is to name but five situations. | |

Apr 4, 2016 at 10:19 | comment | added | Separatrix | @SQB, that's only the start of their troubles, given that the area is question is the Near East not the Middle East. They now call themselves IS, but it's better to call them Daesh. | |

Apr 2, 2016 at 20:49 | comment | added | Wad Cheber | @SQB - no, ISIL = Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. That includes Syria. "The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, IPA /ˈaɪsᵻl/), alternatively translated as Islamic State of Iraq and Syria or Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_State_of_Iraq_and_the_Levant | |
Apr 2, 2016 at 16:43 | comment | added | SQB | Re: Syria, ISIL = IS In Libya, ISIS = IS In Syria. So I think you mean ISIS. | |
