It's the same thing exactly and Jyn lifts her eyebrows at him like okay buddy. Sounds fake.
"So few people were fighting, no one knew there was anything to fight against." It's a sad thought, but Jyn knows it's true. The Republic was too naive and it was such a slow build, they had no way to fight it until it was too late. Mon Mothma and Organa were single voices in a maddening crowd.
She's thought, when she was small, the Bail Organa would have been the Senate support Idryssa mentioned to try to sway Saw to the cause, she thought he'd have the strength to declare war even when she was small and she was right. The Alliance hadn't the strength to do it as one, but it hasn't been so long that she'd forgotten Organa standing up for her desperate pleas to do something about the Death Star. Part of her is still bitter and she doesn't think that feeling will go away any time soon.
If they'd had the support of the Rebellion... maybe they would have survived. Maybe Bodhi or Melshi or Chirrut would have survived, maybe they would have had a chance.

"The Alliance still didn't try to stop it."
