itachi is not exempt.

Itachi grew up around war seeing people die so if you say he should hate the leaf or uchiha for shushi's death or uchiha clan massacre your wrong he had hate long.before that I remember obito talking to sasuke about how itachi hated war so that's what affected his brain and what at all cost he would wanna destroy

Yes, Itachi experienced war @ around the age of 4.

There was a scene shown with super young itachi standing and seeing tons of dead bodies.

Not only that, but Itachi read and understood the uchiha clan's history, the curse and obviously a ton of other stuff. I mean, age 7 - kage level thinking? no joke.

Makes me think of Kakashi during the zabuza timeframe telling naruto that there are shinobi younger than Naruto, but stronger than kakashi (it pissed naruto off )

And @ OP, I agree. Itachi had hate, and it was war. But he also had wisdom and understanding of his clan. He knew Village > Clan, and he chose right in eliminating the clan.
