Foe Glass

A newbie thought on Snape and the Foe Glass:

When I first read it, I thought that Snape saw himself in the glass, 
because he is his own (worst?!?) enemy.  His petulant closed- 
mindedness has kept him from seeing the truth in the past and may 
prove to be his downfall in the future.

The moment before Moody/Crouch was "Stupefy!-ed", Harry saw  
Dumbledore, McGonagall and Snape in the glass.  After Snape steps 
over the unconscious body, he sees himself.  If the glass was truly 
still showing Moody/Couch's enemies, surely Snape's face wouldn't be 
the only one specified as visible, would it?  Perhaps "stupefy!-ing" 
Moody/Crouch enabled the glass to show a new onlooker his foes?
