There is no clear cut answer. The best option right now is to get the UN involved so that some how we can try as a WORLD to salvage this mess we've made. I know that it isnt likely to happen seeing as the whole world is as delighted to wait for the answer to you're question as you were, but really its the only safe way out. The only other thing I can see is that we try and get all our civilians back from Iraq, say f*** it, pull our troops and let the bastards fend for themselves... we could always give saddam back
