As in Lebanon, Iraqis might need to create a balance between the offices of president, prime minister, and speaker of parliament, and to agree that a leader of a different major community will occupy each. This would reinforce the need for inter-communal cooperation and minimize the risk of a return to any form of communal domination or dictatorship.
