Brutus`s Decision ' 

Brutus does this because he has a moral code and does not want to get on the bad side of people who can quite easily kill someone, especially because these people (he thinks) are trying to do it for the good of Rome and that is all he is concerned about, but he is also polite because they vetoed all their ideas if Brutus does not like them.

Yes, this is because it shows all of them have their own intentions, and the fact that they are slightly thick in the head and each man except Brutus is doing it for his own benefit. And as something as definite as where the sun rises it shows they will argue for anything even if it is as set in stone as where the sun shall rise.

This is so because Brutus is a very (he thinks) honourable man and is doing everything for the good of Rome and nothing else and he thinks that these people do not need to swear an oath because the gesture should be enough, and they should not do it because they swore an oath, they should do it because they are doing it for the greater good of Rome.

They do this to butter him up and every decision Brutus makes will be better than done, Brutus is the sharpest tool in the shed so he believes these people are just being nice and not trying to butter him up to kill Caeser, Brutus does not notice this, and they know Brutus, if for the good of Rome, will kill anybody. Furthermore, Brutus is favourable in the eye of the public so when Caeser is declared dead they would never suspect Brutus of doing so, but they would suspect someone like Casca to do so, not Brutus though because he is an honourable Roman.

Brutus does not want to kill any people, but he feels killing Caeser is imperative to “kill the snake before it hatches” and he wants to make it clinical as possible to be “surgeons” not “butchers” he also mentions he wishes that Caeser could be killed without blood, and he thinks Mark Antony, a quite laid-back guy, will laugh at it within the week and will forget it. He also decides killing Mark is not for the good of Rome, that is all he is concerned about. Of course, they vetoed the idea of killing Mark because Brutus said so.

Caeser is superstitious because of the recently reported portents that have occurred, the slave in triumph, the bird of night in the day market, 100 ghastly women saying the saw men on fire. These have made a man who used to say things such as, oh soothsayers are rubbish, to a paranoid wreck, he also suspects they are trying to kill him but not certain, I guess he will find out. Descius, says he knows how to comfort Caeser which shows how easily he will betray Caeser because he recalls him and Caeser trading anecdotes, and he is willing to give that up for the good of Rome, so he will lull Caeser into submission and then they will kill him.
