A police action is the patrolling of an area that is essentially under control with occasional skirmishes or outbreaks of fighting. That is what is happening in Iraq. A war is when the fighting occurs on a daily basis and where there is very little control. There is very little "fighting" going on in Iraq. A suicide car bomb is not fighting. And you realize that it is a country of ~24 million people. Most see no violence every day. That's not characteristic of a war.
