No, it is not. In fact, it is not even close.

There is a very clear reason why no country in the world can even think about attacking us conventionally right now. By your previous statement, I know for a fact you do not know that one, singular reason. But I'll let you guess if you want.

1) They don't want to anger US allies.
2) They don't want a nuclear device detonated in their capital city.

It has nothing to do with the US military being abroad. Face it, conventional warfare is obsolete.
