A limited operation does not have to be minor, it just has to have well
defined limits.


Shucks, by that definition, the U.S. fought World War II as a limited
operation.

a) defeat Germany

b) defeat Japan

What limits could be better defined than those?

Don't be such an idiot.

The Allies fought to defeat Germany and Japan on a strategic level.

Japan fought a limited war in the South Pacific to simply exclude the Allies
from interfering with their supplies.

The South Pacific was a sideshow for Japan and all operations in the South
Pacific were limited and to support the main aim. China.
