Do they plan to kill him? Dumbledore says, in PS (Raincoast 
216), "He is still out there somewhere, perhaps looking for another 
body to share...not being truly alive, he cannot be killed. He left 
Quirrell to die; he shows just as little mercy to his followers as 
his enemies. Nevertheless, Harry, while you may only have delayed 
his return to power, it will merely take someone else who is 
prepared to fight what seems like a losing battle next time -- and 
if he is delayed again, and again, why, he may never return to 
power."

Perhaps Voldemort really is indestructable...which as a 
representation of evil makes sense. I don't think Rowlings so black 
and white as to want to hint that evil can be so completely and 
utterly destroyed that vigilence will never be required against it. 
Maybe Voldemort cannot be destoyed, but can be contained (like a 
beetle in a bottle...) That would be interesting...
