civil war.
though staying will not guarantee that won't happen - unless we install another dictator.
england stayed in india for 100 years.
when they left there was a civil war where one million died and pakistan was partitioned off.
no matter how long we stay, civil war will be in iraq.
and i don't think making iraq the 51st state is an option...

The South Vietnamese government was ridiculously corrupt and Catholic in a land of Buddhists, and yet to a large degree Vietnamization worked (though it took a long time). The NVA didn't move into Saigon until Congress cut off all support, and ARVN ran out of supplies.

The real question is "wont the same thing happen if we wait 10 years before pulling out". As you so nicely pointed out to us all, it did in Vietnam. Or,,,, are you suggesting that we stay in Iraq for 50 years, like we have Korea.
