Sure, I can deal with the fact that Tsunade have other reasons that are not privy to the reader, and it probably get highly political involving Sasuke's clan and his advanced bloodline. I can deal and I can undersatand, it's perfectly tactical and sound to send genins who are powerful and resourceful, and knows Sasuke.

However, I dont' see why the hate, why the hell would Sasuke think Tsunade would care enough to send people to get him back? I don't for a minute believe that Sasuke ever thought of himself as One of Them, maybe as One of The Team, but never as One of the Village, that is Naruto. And even then, Sasuke has always made it extremely clear that he would do anything to get revenge.

I just can't hate him. I can't hate Sasuke when he knows he won't be able to return to the village, and he probably doesn't expect anyone to come after him. I just can't. Sasuke had a goal, and Sasuke is going after the goal, and from what I have seen the only people Sasuke ever cared for were Naruto and Sakura.

Having said that, I still don't think the deaths of Chouji and possibly Neji is worth Sasuke's life. Sasuke has chosen, and whether one think it is a betrayal, a stupid choice, or the right one, he still chose. And sending the team after him pissed me off, because some of them will die, and what for? To bring back someone who no longer want to be part of the Village.

Let Sasuke go, and if people hate him, then hate him, but damn it, let him make his own fecking mistakes.
