I have been bothered by this over and over. Minato did think that he needed to tell Hiruzen about, what happened, and who was behind the fox attack. But yet he didn't?

He did manage to tell a frog key to store himself with Jiraya though. This is odd, why didn't he tell it shortly about Madara (Obito)?

This could have prevented the higher opp's for getting suspicious about the Uchiha clan, and they wouldn't have wanted to stage a coup.

I know the answer is plot, but still :sy:

Hmmm... I think because he's pressed for time with Kushina and baby Naruto in danger.

Minato died before the Massacre was ever plan and executed,so How is He to blame?

"Kushina, I know you are impaled by Kyuubi and about to die, but can you wait here for a min or two, I have to go talk to Hiruzen about something."

Still it's 2 seconds max to say that extra. He said first: "Store yourself with Jiraya" "and tell him it was Madara who did it"
This was more important than letting Kushina tell so much to Naruto, which he didn't understand anyway...

Rofl, he was probably out of chakra at the time though, so he couldn't jump to Hiru..

Could prevent? As far as I know, it has already happened, and Minato is dead.

If you're suggesting he COULD have warned Hiruzen about the massacre...I'm fairly confident he had other things to worry about.

Hell, I'm not even sure the Fox was originally planned to be controlled. Much less the reason for increased suspicion towards the Uchiha.

time, he had to stop the kyuubi, because if he went to tell the village the truth, there'll be no village anymore

Itachi knew Madara (well Obito in the guise of Madara) was alive before the clan massacre and he seems to have deduced that he was responsible for the 9 tails attack (he tells Sasuke this), why didnt he inform the 3rd/elders? Logic and plot are generally mutually exclusive in this manga.

Its a private matter that only 3rd and other elders should know. It means even the 4th musnt know about it

Also i think minato's already dead by that time
