If you literally want to say "the Gazan War" or "the War on Gaza" it would be translated as (الحرب ضد غزة ) Al-Harb Did Ghaza. However, most Arabs call the War, "the Massacre of Gaza" which is translated as (مجزرة غزة‎) Majzarat Ghaza.
There are practically no people from Gaza who are not ethnic Palestinians, so the distinction is meaningless in any real sense, but Gazan refers to an inhabitant of the Gaza Strip and is a "national" term as opposed to Palestinian, which is an ethnic term.
Most likely it is so that you will have an appreciation for the difficulties and sadness that plague the Middle East.
The war in question (the Gaza War of 2008-2009) began on December 27, 2008.
It began on 8 July 2014. Currently (as of 5 August 2014), there is a ceasefire, but it is questionable whether it will hold.

There is a war because the land was originaly Palestine, but was split up after world war 2 to add Israel so that the Jews could have some of the holy land. The Isrealis attacked the Palestinian half of Jerusalem and other Palestinian states because they said the holy city could never be split.This resulted in Palestinians getting kicked out of their homes, but some fought back, and there is still dispute there now. Ask the US why it supports Israel against civilian Palestinians Because the Palestinians are being ruled and abused by the Israeli's and being denied there rightful homeland. The lands they do still have are being taken away from them and Israeli settlements are being built on them.
The conflict is rooted in the fact that its neighbors cannot stomach Israel's existence,and in the historic fact that every time they have tried to wipe it out of existence,they have been unsuccessful.
