Will they have the force projection, though? They'd be wrapped up in Europe and Asia. But the want to get access to the Suez Canal which Ethiopia can cut of. Could they have enough strength to get through Egypt?

The only need to mine the Red Sea and maybe place some long range cannons on the coast and they can cut of one part of the access to the Mediterranean Sea, it will be hard for Australians and Indian troops to get to North Africa, they will have to take the long way around Cape of Good Hope.

That makes sense. They would invade Djibouti for the port and position in this case undoubtedly.

Maybe the United States is in war with itself. Between who and who, though? The nation was very unified after WWII.
