    If I had to guess, I’d say funding and plausible deniability are the big reasons. The longer the war wages on, the longer the US and other allies keep sending them money and weapons. And killing them off slowly makes it easier to argue to the ICC that you weren’t trying to commit genocide, it just kinda happened as an oh-so-unfortunate side-effect of defending themselves.
