They gave it a name. Lets not reinvent the wheel here.

This has come up a few times. Here was what I
thought the most
reasonable solution was: if the operation name is obviously meant to
influence your opinion about the validity/success of the operation
itself, it should not be used as the article title, and instead
something more neutral and descriptive should be used.
So "Operation Barbarossa" -- no problem. "Operation Crossroads" --
no
problem. "Operation Just Cause" -- should be "United States invasion
of Panama" (which it is). "Operation Iraqi Freedom" -- should be
something more neutral (it is currently "Iraq War", which I find a
little too ambiguous, personally, since there have been many Iraq
Wars, but anyway, anything is better than the operation name).

Personally I like "Gulf War II".
