No. If we were to stop all ME "involvement" then Israel would be in serious trouble - it relies heavily on US help simply to exist. We could stop pretending that we can buy peace (often called the diplomatic solution) or that a continuous US military "presence" will eventually work. Unlike conventional war, the "war on terror" does not seek to take, hold and control any defined territory - making it impossible to achieve a ME military victory.

Then why is the "war on terror" defined as a war?
