Somehow let's involve America in the conflict (6)
I believe the answer is:
tussle
'the conflict' is the definition.
(tussle is a kind of conflict)
'somehow let's involve america' is the wordplay.
'somehow' indicates an anagram.
'involve' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'america' becomes 'US' (United States).
'lets' anagrammed gives 'tsle'.
'tsle' enclosing 'us' is 'TUSSLE'.
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for tussle that I've seen before include "A struggle or conflict" , "Fight vigorously" , "Struggle like wrestling bout" , "Skirmish" , "'Scuffle, rough-and-tumble (6)'" .)
