itachi was prepared to steal away sasuke's free will in the interests of konoha so no. he would kill/sell out sasuke for konoha if given the choice.
and he would destroy any other place in the world if it means konoha survives/gets stronger.
then again hes neglectful and stupid in his supposed "protection" of konoha as well. he really only cares about himself and how much he can control and manipulate others.
he attempted to destroy it by giving nukes to obito
As much as he loves Sasuke
which he demonstrates by brutally torturing sasuke for several days, humilating and tormenting him and corrupting his mind with promises of ultimate power.
he wouldn't sacrifice innocent peoples life.
he can and has tried to.
remember "you must kill your best friend"?
itachi would be completely and totally fine with sasuke if he cut down naruto and butchered him for power. he showed this when he acted shocked and appalled that sasuke hadnt yet gotten an MS and then killed himself to force sasuke to get it.
itachi doesnt care who and what he has to kill or let die for his goal of controlling others. its a pathological need of his that overpowers any kind of compassion or love.
wrong. if he loved his village he wouldnt have ordered sasuke ot kill innocent people in konoha for power. and he wouldnt have blackmailed and threatened his own people.
he didnt want konoha to go to war with anyone
sure he did given he spied on akatsuki. clearly he wants akatsuki and konoah to war.
To him Sasuke was more than the village.
yet planned to enslave sasuke and chain him to the village for eternity against his will
..and if he did hurt Sasuke somehow,there would be no man or god who would save him from Itachi
you heard it here first.
"no one hurt sasuke..unless its me of course in which case i get to torture and beat sasuke to near death"
which hes never done before and will never do again
or itachi sasuke's life weighs more than the village
and his own interests and desire to control others weighs more than sasuke's life and free will. or the lives of innocent people being killed by sasuke.
In the end, Danzo would only react to Konoha being in danger.
danzo abandoned konoha to be 99% wiped out.
He went so far as to murder his own clan and family to protect the village. How would you think he would do such thing?
he went so far as to let orochimaru go for no reason, to endanger the village and make it get half destroyed. as wlel as aiding obito in obtaining 6 nukes.
e knew Orochimaru would never harm Sasuke
oro didnt even know for sure if sasuke would survive the curse seal. im sure he will beat the shit out of sasuke if he needs to. he just wont damage those sharingans.
Yeah, he would, protecting Sasuke was his dying promise to his parents.
which he almost immediately threw in the trash when he tortured sauske for 3 days and turned him to the path of hate
which he has shown by brutally beating him into a coma and torturing him in order to control every aspect of his life
While he loved Konoha, he loved Sasuke more.
while he hated konha he hated sasuke more and went to high efforts to destroy both and abandon them to suffering.
itachi would do anything if it meant he controls and manipulates more innocent people.
he hated konoah so severely that he abandoned them to destruction by telling them nothing at all about obito or akatsuki, and did nothing to stop grave threats like danzo and orochimaru.
he hated sasuke so much he beat him inot a coma, and when sasuke did the logical thing and turned to hatred, itachi panicked and planned to permanently brainwash and rewrite sasukes mind. as if to say "i dont like you as you are now, so i want a new brother via brainwashing. arent i just a great guy?"
