Why would the Alliance do so?
Because the Forsaken are treacherous scum, monsters who have shown they consider themselves bound by no treaty, capable of honoring no word or promise.
Because the Forsaken have shown themselves to be aggressive warmakers with plans to conque or Alliance territories.
Because the Forsaken have shown themselves to be aggressive users of the most foul weapons and magicks
Because, despite the popular notion, a good chunk of Lordaeranians did survive the Scourge and ae being sheltered by the Alliance
Because the Alliance owes Lordaeran a debt for what it did in the Second War when it sheltered Stormwinds survivors until the
kingdom was restored.
Because Lordaeran was a founding member of the Alliance and so is of cultural and historical importance to the Alliance
Because the Forsaken are necromantic constructs, magical prisons housing the very souls of their friends, their families, their allies, their countrymen and those souls need to be freed from damnation so they can journey to the Light
Because the Forsaken are magically dominated slaves who need to be freed for their own good and for the safety of the Alliance
Because Varian saw exactly what the Forsaken were up to and what they were capable of in the Battle for Undercity
For Genn? Gilneas, Gilneas Cty and Liam
For Danath? Galen
For Admiral Rogers? Southshore
Because Sylvanas has turned this into an existential war. For every Forsake who lives, a human had to die.
Out of game? For the player?
Because it provides story, pvp oppotunities, loot, and would be a way to actively progress the Alliance story
