Oh I just remembered another one;

Kabuto: He ordered Kabuto to be assassinated (by his own mother no less) only because he was Danzo's best spy! Kabuto only betrayed him because you back stabbed him so harshely (he was actually quite content working for root up to that point).

I don't think Tobi could have got as far as he did, if it wasn't for Danzo gifting him all these villians. The Leaf village would have been the world's biggest powerhouse if it wasn't for Danzo. Imagine the Leaf with: Itachi, Shisui, entire uchiha clan, Kabuto and the original akatsuki as allies (they were lead by Jiraiya's students and only wanted peace).
