    If you have the power to unilaterally hinder a genocide and instead you use that power to enable it, you are culpable.

      He’s definitely culpable, but he’s far from the only one.

        Sure, just the one with the most ability to act on his own. His culpability is proportional to that. He’s used that ability previously to aid Israel, he could use that same power to hinder them, but chooses not to.

          the one with the most ability to act on his own

          Maybe 3 years ago he would’ve been, but right now, with an election coming up against Trump and his Maggats, he’s in a very precarious position.
