Ok so I am watching a lot of recent english subbed episodes of shippuden and got to the part where Yahiko dies (Sorry but that can't really be much of a spoiler since we knew for a long time that he was dead). I am confused though because I don't understand why Danzo needed to frame the Akatsuki. I understand that he wanted the fighting to continue and that the Akatsuki stood in the way of that, but why did he want them to be fighting in the first place? Was it to display the Hidden Leaf Village's strength or something? Because if so, there are many other ways to have done that without getting many of your own men killed and fighting a righteous peace-keeping organization.

The second thing I also noticed was that Yahiko's death is what drives Nagato to use the power of the Rinnegan and to believe that peace is possible through Obito's methods rather than Yahiko's. While this is all fine and understandable, if Nagato cared about Yahiko so much, why not just use Rinne Resurrection to bring him back? I mean we know that either Obito taught him how to do it or that he figured it out eventually because he uses it, so why not just do that and keep your faith in humanity?
