The result was merge to Middle East Theatre of World War II. kur ykh 23:37, 10 January 2009 (UTC) reply
I am proposing that this article be deleted as the information contained within, is already covered in detail within other summery articles. In this case both the Mediterranean, Middle East and African theatres of World War II and Middle East Theatre of World War II articles summarise the events that happened in the Middle East geographical area during the World War Two period.
When one consults the Oxford dictionary it states that a military campaign is a “series of military operations intended to achieve an objective in a particular area” ( http://www.askoxford.com/concise_oed/campaign?view=uk); dictionary.com states something along the same lines: that a campaign is “military operations for a specific objective.”( http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/campaign)
Thus as a descriptive name it does fit. This “campaign” was a series of mini-wars, a few bombing raids, and small campaigns launched on one front of a theatre of war; not a separate individual military campaign.
Doing Google searches on the term one finds nothing, when excluding wiki or other websites copying information off the wiki, on this subject so I do not believe it necessary compiles with the Wikipedia:Naming conventions.
To sum up I believe that this is not a common or correct name for the events that took place, I believe the summaries have sufficiently been dealt with elsewhere so that this article is no longer needed and from a historical/military point of view the events that took place were not one single military campaign and each had there own objectives and were loosely related.-- EnigmaMcmxc ( talk) 15:43, 16 December 2008 (UTC) reply
