The hypothalamus controlls drives and regulating some body function (heart beating, body temperture, etc.) it can make you feel hunger but it won't make you decide to eat, it can make you feel thirsty but can't make you drink, it can make you feel angery but not make you hit. In short the hypothalamus affects decisions but doesn't make them.
