James,

Saddam is also needed as a check against Shiite Iranians, and keeping
them as far away from Israel as possible! In absence of Saddam, shiite pro-Iranian can takes over in Iraq. Together with Iranian, they can form an alliance with Syria that are Alewii's (very close to Shiites!) and endanger the Hashmite Kingdom of Jordan and consequently, the State of Israel!

Last but not least, there is the Kurdish question. A weak central government in Bagdad, could unify Kurds in Norhren Iraq with Syrian,Turkish and Iranians Kurds. A Kurdish war of independence the can engulf the whole region!
