That's easy. Just tell them what countries are involved and the Americans won't have a clue where to go, and the UK will justify non-involvement by claiming Ireland is flaring up again.

Seriously though Ireland might be a possible distraction for the English and if they've got troops still in the middle east, chances are they'll have nothing left to send to Asia.

The US on the other hand, well they couldnt' be bothered the first time around, why would they bother the second, especially if it's not being fought on Australian ground or directly threatening (thereby activating treaty obligations).
