Raising War with KQs in the SB

Can someone explain why you wouldnt fold preflop here? From what ive read, KQ, suited or not, is not a great hand to be cold calling 2 with preflop, and i have generally found this to be true from experience. He says no reads so its not that he knew he would be in a multiway hand. I would fold here preflop

I know Aussie already responded to this but I had a couple ideas to add.

With two limpers before the button raise, I think it's very resonable to expect this to be a multiway hand ... in my experience 99% of limpers won't fold to a single raise. The BB re-raise is unexpected but both the limpers came along for the ride anyway. Also since you're in the SB you're technically only calling 1.5 cold. Once the BB re-raises and it comes back to us I don't think we can fold for one additional bet to this now large pot.
