As of 2016, several Middle Eastern countries would qualify as being in a civil war between government forces and rebel insurgents. They include: Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Lebanon (partially), Egypt (in the Sinai Peninsula), and Turkey (in southeast Anatolia).
Counterinsurgency forces must differentiate between civilians and insurgents, as well as distinguishing between legitimate grievances and criminal activities. It is also crucial to separate local populations from external influences that may be fueling the insurgency. By accurately identifying these distinctions, counterinsurgency forces can effectively target their efforts and minimize civilian casualties.

You need to specificy where you think this may have happened. There was no serious insurgency in Germany or Japan.
If you're asking about the current Operation in Iraq (Iraqi Freedom); NO NATION IS AT WAR with Iraq! Government forces are trying to arrest/terminate terrorists/insurgents.

Not always. There are a few small countries on this planet that have no army and a few others who try to keep the size and expense as minimal as possible. But most countries traditionally have an army. The USA because it sees itself (up to now, at least) as the policeman of the world; many others because they face clear and present danger from insurgents, religious fanatics and/or neighboring countries; others because having an army adds to their standing among fellow countries - or provides them with a useful means of adding pressure in diplomatic conflicts with them.
