<<then why won't Dumbledore tell Harry why Voldemort tried to kill him?>>

I suspect only because it wouldn't serve the story line at this point.

Oh, we can do better than that. I suspect it is because Harry has not,
in fact, fulfilled the prophecy yet. It probably has something to do
with destroying Lord V., and even way back in book one Dumbledore knew
that Lord V was down but he wasn't yet out. So he didn't want Harry to
know about it. Frequently prophecys in books are kept from the person
involved so as not to affect their behavior.
