Less stable. I also suspect it will shortly become even more instable. The one good thing, ironically, that Saddam Hussein did was buffer the region. I can envision multiple civil wars with foreign opportunists, likely China and Russia, lurking to gain advantage over the United States' influence, or rather, lack thereof in the region.
