Prevent genocide was the ostensible reason for US/UN participation in the conflict. It's pretty difficult to see a logical reason for the US secondary goals (stabilising the area, securing territories for certain groups, [indirectly] effecting regime change in Serbia) which they actually achieved outside the context of "people are appealing to us to stop this genocide". The US doesn't get much strategic benefit from being on relatively good terms with the Kosovars.
