what would you do with the iraq situation?

As a leader?
(a) I'd never be there in the first instance - especially based on the superb intelligence of the world's most pathetic intell agency (or the "excuse" of the world's most pathetic intelligence service).
(b) I'd ask the people who elected me to shoot me in the head - after I apologise for lying about all the excuses and deception used to engage in an invasion of Iraq, accepting full responsibilty for the killing of 1000's of innocent people and for asking US people to go to war - and profuse aplogies for fucking up the US economy and behaving like a total idiot.
(c) The Iraq scenario is going nowhere - irrespective of any action by the US. At no time has the US ever shown any command of negotiation or balance and it's clear the "management" are clueless on this. Welcome to the new era of the "war on terror" and new generations of Iraqi people who despise every high moral value the US purports to endorse. Instead, look forward to elements of those new generations of Iraqi's intent on blowing US targets to hell and back - along with those of any other nation who supported them.
Sympathy? Sure, got plenty of that, - especially for the 1000's of innocent people who have been killed in Iraq and their surviving families who will continue to suffer for decades long after the US packs up and goes home. Also got sympathy for US folks who had no part in the adventures of their stupid government and who will, at some time or other, be taking the flack of retaliation/revenge activity. None of these people ever deserved intervention of the ignorant smartasses in their lives.
Any mention of costs over Iraq is but a grain of sand - the US will pay a far higher price yet, both is lost lives and economically. Iraq will be much the same, but the effects will last many decades. Other nations will (they already are) adopting changed attitudes towards the US - tho these will vary - depending. No nation wants to be allied to losers, but little doubt if it came to crunch time, would be willing to assist to a controlled level. We all live on this planet together - some idiots on the block just need "managed" or executed - and Saddam is not alone on this.
"What would you do with the iraq situation?" - the US government created that situation - now it's time for them to find an excuse to get out if it. No other party is to blame.
