NYTimes -- We Don't Invade Iraq. Then What?

What about the day after a non-war?

Even if Saddam Hussein were ousted, the Iraq problem is unlikely to disappear. Iraq would still have a volatile domestic situation, long-standing border disputes with neighbors, a rivalry with Iran and a drive to acquire nonconventional weapons.

Failure to offer practical ideas for what should happen if war does not occur will only make war more likely — either now or when the next crisis is upon us.

Now this is a problem to address, how to not have a war and have a better Iraq.
