Probably a lot of things, buy first and foremost causing others to have vitriol and attack their own people rather than invaders. There's probably several and contingency reasons for it but even if that's not the case they never pass up a remotely opportune time to sow division among a people and pit them against each other even if it's far more rational to have that anger go elsewhere.
