Explanation / Answer

1)
Cassius is well aware that Brutus is unwilling to act against Caesar just because Cassius told him to. He needed to convince him to betray Caesar because he still had mixed feelings

2)
It means that Brutus is easily manipulated, and may have already had doubts about Caesar. He was already confused as to his loyalties, and Cassius just helped push him in a direction.
3)
He doesn’t think that killing him is necessary. Killing Antony could just disrupt further and he could have had moral conflict about killing more people than needed for the job. “Our course will seem too bloody, Caius Cassius, To cut the head off and then hack the limbs, Like wrath in death and envy afterwards; For Antony is but a limb of Caesar: Let us be sacrificers, but not butchers, Caius
