Ok, Przemyslaw, so you want a trap that only 'discovers' DE, because we 
already know they are in the street, but not Voldie.

You set a series of Portkeys in the MoM's phone cabin, to activate at a time. 
You can do that, as you are spying Harry. Or in all the entrances you know, 
just to make sure. Separate them. Stun Harry. Use Harrys hand to retrieve 
prophecy. If he needs to be conscious, force him. If he needs to agree, kill 
a few of his friends, only a few, you don't want to waste your material. 
Bring muggles and keep killing.

If you don't like my way for separating them, try this one: set Portkeys as 
little objects made to be trown, by contact, them hit them with your new 
'weapon'. If you set well the trap, at least half of them should be wherever 
you wish before they can raise wands.

Ok, Voldie can kill Harry or stun Harry nor the DE. But a simple 'fishing 
net'? (excuse me, I'm ESL and just don't know if there is a specific word for 
it) should do the trick.

Or, as I'm supossedly the most evil wizard of a century, I remember I can 
perform Imperio and I 'hire' a militar strategist. Because, well, I might not 
be to Avara Kadabra him, but sure he can't handle something as ten Black 
Belts, a SWAT or something of the like (no muggle technologies as firearms 
that might not work, just a good knife). How useful is Oblibiate.

Just to point a few possibilities. I think if I had Voldie's experience with 
magic I should have more.

You are right, Dan. The plan sucks. Voldemort always surprises me as how 
stupid can be at times.

Unless Lucius is in jail *on purpose*, as the signal for the DE to rebel. 
Then, the MoM attack, even if went bad, is something that can be gained on, 
but that's an entirely different question.
