Yes. Anakin Skywalker all over again Itachi Send a noteboard - 06/01/2010 11:01:02 PM
He was thought to be the savior of the Jedi and he nearly wiped them out.

He wasn't evil, but his tactics were and slowly they consumed him.
Rand was ready to kill his father, as Anakin was ready to kill Obi-wan.

Datakim is trying to justify his actions, but Rand is cold and uncaring (much like a forsaken). Everyone who described him mention a darkness (actual dimming of light) that surrounds him. That is the concern.
