I was talking about the vote on the bill, when all that had been happening for some time but ok.
even if I accept yr premise, was it worth waiting for how ever many more thousands of people being killed so it "carries more weight"? Of course not It wasn't politically advantageous at the time for him to call for a ceasefire so he didn't. He argued against it. Now he's seen which way public and media sentiment is going he's changed his tune entirely.
Hardly like that's the only thing he's done a 180 on is it, and I think it takes some real mental gymnastics to convince oneself that it's anything other than politically motivated tbh

Or, calling for a ceasefire carries more weight now - following Israel's actions and its ambassadors trashing the two state solution in public - than it did in the days immediately following the massacre.
