In the future most US foreign policy decisions will be made by first calculating their impact on China. The aim will be to counter growing Chinese influence and making sure that China will not become the world leader, at least while the Communist party is in control there.

Recent example of this is the resolution of the missile conflict with Russia. The US may decide not to build a missile shield in Poland and will instead build one with Russia in Azerbaijan. Thus the US is preparing for a closer alliance with Russia and trying to drive a wedge into the friendship that Russia and China have developed. Russia and China have in the recent past voted in harmony in the UN security council on issues such as Iran, so the US wants to make it more reasonable for Russia to cooperate with the US and its western allies, e.g. in the security council.

In the future the US will attack Iran only if it serves the goal of limiting Chinese influence in the middle east. An Israeli attack is a more likely scenario. In addition the US will now have to compete with China in Africa, where its influence is growing due to far sighted Chinese diplomacy that is waiting for Africa to prosper.

I wonder what affect China's monthly American debt purchases have on this...
