Itachi never liked his clan, as he says over and over in Sasuke's flashbacks. He said everyone focused too much on the clan. That was just a factor, though. He killed the clan to test his strengths and his own nindo. In the flashbacks, he was nice and respectable, but he later informs Sasuke that it was all al act, to see how Sasuke would react. I rambled, but I hope I helped!

Uchiha Itachi is one of the last of the Uchiha clan, with his brother, Uchiha Sasuke. They are the only survivors of the Uchiha clan, which was once praised as the strongest clan in Leaf village.
Itachi is the Shinobi that killed the entire Uchiha clan Apart from Sasuke. And when he was a Shinobi of the Leaf, Itachi graduated from the Chuunin selection exam at the age of 10, and when he was 13 he was a ANBU Captain! At current it's unknown why Itachi let Sasuke live, it may be because only a Mangekyou sharigan user can kill him, and he wished to be killed by his brother. Or prehaps he let him live because "He wasn't even worth killing" either way, he forced his brother to live a painfull life, swearing that he will avenge the clan and kill Itachi.
Itachi has the feared bloodline ability, the Sharigan eye. Which he can use to copy the opponents techniques and also see through other techniques. Itachi has also mastered the Sharigan eye, so he can use the "Mangekyou sharigan" which is a extremely dangerous technique.
Itachi is currently a member of the organization "Akatsuki" Which is comprised of "Sly S-Rank Criminals" as Kakashi stated. There Goal is Unknown, but we DO know that Itachi and his partner Kisame where ordered to find Kuuybi (The nine tails fox demon), and take it with them, and so they have to kidnap Naruto.
Itachi first appeared in Episode 80, where we breifly veiwed him and Kisame observing the ruined Leaf village, after Orochimarus invasion. We also found out around that time that Itachi is able to defeat Kakashi quite easily, he didn't even break a sweat when he and Kakashi fought.

I don't know but it is revealed in the Naruto II manga I don't know the full details(I didn't want to completly spoil myself)but Itachi was trying to SAVE Sasuke(yes weird right?!). And Itachi isn't evil. As for why he is in Akatsuki I don't know yet but read the Naruto II manga and you will find out.

So he can test his abilities since he just got mangekyou sharingan. He just wanted to see how strong the mangekyou sharingan really was. He let Sasuke live because he wanted a challenge from a real sharingan user.

one reason is becouse he had to get rid of everyone that was close to him in order to join the Akatsuki. also, to gain the Mangekyou. i think there are also other hidden reasons as to why. Itachi means "weasel" on Japanese, which is an animal associated with bad luck and misfortune.
