The story makes sense to me. Why bother with keeping the violence and bombing up after the people you don't like have either been killed or have fled for their lives.

We did the same thing in El Salvador and Nicaragua. We insinuated ourselves in a civil war, on what would have been the losing side. We then provided just barely enough support to ensure that the two sides were equally matched, keeping the highly profitable war going on and on and on and on, while US military contractors raked it in.
