And we see that they were still the police force of Konoha, that was not taken away from them. We could also say that it is a plot hole that Kishimoto doesn't show what did they exactly lose. What we know from Danzou's flashback is that there was one Uchiha among the now elders when they were young (and a fat guy, i guess it someone from Choji's clan). But in present time there is no Uchiha in the village leadership. Tobi also said that they were given the police force, and at present time it seems they still had that. Also Itachi was in the ANBU and also trusted by the elders so much that they even told him their plan of ambushing the Uchiha. That's total trust, Itachi could have told this to his clan and they could have ambushed the elders before the ANBU can act. So the whole thing is messed up if you analyze it too deeply.

You assume that the village would "gut" them, but there was no sign of that, they never knew that Itachi was spying on them and based on that the village knew about what were they planning. If the village didn't know about their plans there would be no reason to kill them. And if the village doesn't plan to kill them then why attack the village? They had no right to attack the village, they could have just left the village and offered their power to another village or take over a smaller village like Orochimaru did.
ok as far as the uchiha being given the police force duties, that meant nothing. wasnt it stated that that was given to them as a means to spy on them, in other words it wasnt given to them out of honor and respect, also it was a cheap attempt to calm them because they were not given a place on the leadership board (thats messed up when you have a clan that hand in hand help you create the village). now about your comment about leaving the village, who does that and lives. no one esp a powerful clan like the uchiha is going to just walk out on the village, i think the reason much of the info was kept secret is for clan control. the villiage didnt want other powerful clans who down the road may feel wronged to plan a coup. it feels to me that you as a clan are just supposed to take it and not do anything(danzo all but said that to sasuke during there fight) this ideal of a all about the village and your clan be damned is not going to cut it for people like sasuke. the village has to change it views a bit or more haterd is going to be a result of it.
