I personally don't think there is a way to get rid of the current regime other than war. Even if you could get rid of Saddam, someone would just take his place. Even if you got rid of the entire baath party, I find it highly unlikely that the power vacuum would be filled by a democracy. It could even be an opportunity for a taliban style regime to rise to power, which would be a lot worse.
I'm not condoning war, but sometimes war is necessary to achieve certain ends. I'm not saying that this is necessarily a time when war is justified, but there are definately times when it is, world war two being a prime example. (not that I'm suggesting that this in any way compares to world war two, unlike some people)
