I don't think the consequences have as much to do militarily as they do economically.
America's economy is extremely dependent on China right now. If China stops buying US Treasury bonds, the US economy is fucked, and not just a little fucked, fucked big time. There is a massive economic house of cards built up right now, and America can't afford to fuck with China. Iraq? Yes. China? No.
