A regime that has antagonized the US and mistreated its subjects for decades would obtain more resources.
So... you punish a regime for mistreating its subjects - by mistreating its subjects even more?
It's the less bad option, because it should lead to the end of the regime.
The alternative is giving the regime more resources to continue or even expand its policies.
