I understand that in my scenario a federal iraqi democracy of sorts proabably goes away for the time being

It would go away forever, or until we went back in and spent 10x more US lives reestablishing it. Just like South Vietnam went away, and will never return. Just like Afghanistan as a unitary state went away, after the US and USSR averted their gaze. It would become a living hell.
