Here is an idea: the only way to win is a large and extremely costly invasion, actual troops on the ground for probably a decade. Nobody wants to pay that price.

Turn all the under-mountain missile cities into super-mega-mall-cities with Whole Foods, McDonalds, indoor shooting ranges, nail salons, super-walmarts, hotels, apartments, casinos, mega strip clubs and free e-bikes to get from business to business as the tunnels go on for miles.
