is the true story- and also basis for shakuni's revenge-also he hated that his beloved sister had to marry a blind person!!
The version I know is Bhishma imprisoned Gandhari's parents (where they died) n made her married to Dhritarashtra .. to avenge his family n sister's marriage Shakuni took an oath of destroying Kuru bannsh .. it is said his "Pasha" was made of his parent's bone n he somehow demolished Kuru vansh with the help of it

Shakuni cannot be the only brother to seek revenge... If injustice was done to parents, then all the brothers should have been angry or at least Shakuni could have made them to turn them against Kuru clain.
They should have remained aloof and Shakuni was cunning enough to make an excuse for it. Even if they were forced to join the army, why did they put such a valiant fight?
as per my logic I think the intelligent he was he knew the end of the battle in fact he instigated Kurukshetra for seeking revenge .. with an identification of well wisher of Kauravas he planned the whole game .. more than his life his revenge mattered to him .. he didn't want life but revenge .. I don't know about his brothers as I knew his whole family was imprisoned n killed .. anyway even if his bros attended the battle from Kaurav's side it was for Gandhari .. think this way ... for them may be it was just about taking gandhari's sons' side .. the avenging was in Shakuni's head n on another thought may be they followed Shakuni blindly
