What is athena trying to accomplish by saying the following?

"father zeus—you other happy gods who never die—

no, let him be cruel and always practice outrage." (5, 8-11) *

c) she is implicating zeus's unjust behavior. as king of the gods, he is setting a bad example for mortal kings by ruling poorly.
d) she is defending odysseus's questionable reign as king of ithaca by pointing out that lots of kings are tyrants.
