He, more than anyone else, is why the genocide was able to happen in the first place.

? Pretty bold claim there. I'd say it's Netanyahu, but there was a lot of support from Biden and his administration for sure.

He protected them from every form of intervention. Without a supportive American government they would not have even had the weapons to do it themselves.

That is a fair point. This spurred me to do some quick research into global arms dealers and diplomatic relations. Yeah, I'd say the USA is very much enabling Israel to commit genocide. It really grinds me up how nearly anyone who could have become president would have kept the exports going. I suppose if the USA hadn't supplied them, Italy (more specifically Rome) would have been the next most likely arms dealer for Israel. They would have been a lot easier to diplomatically pressure into stopping arms-deals though. Idk whether that would be enough to prevent the genocide, but it would probably have reduced the severity at least.
