Saddam commits suicide after Desert Storm

Yes very unlikely, but this forum is about what if so might as well discuss it....

Suppose Saddam realizing he's out for the count after Desert Storm commits suicide and Tariq Aziz takes over.

Well that would throw a wrench into George W Bush's future plans. Not sure what his dad as president would see it but he would be very worried about the chaos and possible civil war that would ensue....likely would have to send the troops back in.

Was the White House even in Walker Bush's plans 9 years before it happened?
no he was too drunk and high on coke to care about the presidency.

Uday would take over, kill his brother, and have a much worse few years that his father.
 
Kill his brother? From the "House of Saddam" they seemed to have a good relationship. I expect Uday to take over and indulge in his desires as a figurehead. However his brother Qusay Hussein was made heir in 2000 and probably is the one running the country.
