"It's because you let Rin die"
Kishimoto is not a bad enough writer for him to say it is only because Rin died he is evil, if you really think that you don't give him enough credit
When Tobi says he has done this because Rin died, there is a wider meaning, Obito used this example because it is the root of his problem but not the cause, and would mess around with Kakashi's head, lets take a look at the old Kakashi gaiden to see what he means.
The part I really want to bring to your attention is the the bottom left corner, people were making a point of this but I didn't see it until now, this line is vital and his trademark line are vital here.
Now Tobi's ideals seem to be different now but fundamentally follow the same pattern.
The point being made in the top left corner, is important because in Kakashi Gaiden, Obito has a different idea of a hero from the rest of the shinobi world.
Obito believed that saving comrades is what constitutes a hero, Kakashi failed to save Rin yet was hailed as the 'hero of the sharingan', the shinobi world values the mission more than the shinobi doing it, this would have angered him and he would have wanted to change this, but however would soon come to realise with some help from Madara/Zetsu that infinite tsukuyomi is the only way for this to happen, and with shinobi and the world as it is, valuing human life is impossible
When one loves they run the risk of carrying hate, I think this poetic line underlines how he changed too, losing the one he loved caused him to carry and understand hate, but under the infinite tsukuyomi there can be none of this, that is why he has left that behind after seeing the truth behind that hate and the truth of the shinobi world, and make everyone sleep under the infinite tsukuyomi.
