Hmm, haven't read anyone elses so I'll be brief.
Wouldn't have fired off those missiles hoping to kill Saddam cause it meant he could fire back, which lead to a slightly undignified kick-off with all the coalition forces having to scatter so as not to be hit by a random scud.
Whatever that unit was that had to park outside Baghdad for three days cause the supply hadn't kept up? I'd've gone a bit slower.
Day after I took over I would have anounced General whoever as new ruler of Iraq and ordered everyone in the country to return to work, including top officials and army. Anyone not working or reporting to barracks would be taken into resettlement areas and used as labourers in reconstruction. (well fed, housed and clothed of course, I'm not a tyrant)
Over next few years I'd quietly have taken top officials and army commanders guilty of genocide somewhere quiet and hung them, replacing them with my own plants. Round about now I'd be giving them their own elections, two parties only, all members of parliament hand picked by me.
ten years from now I'd be closing down half my military bases.
