Now me, Margaret:

I agree with digger that Dumbledore's death seems inevitable. He is 
very old (even for a wizard methinks) and is exposing himself to a 
lot of danger being the head of the Order of the Phoenix.  It seems 
(at least to me) very likely he will be killed by Voldemort himself 
(Dumbledore dying of old age would be so anti-climatic).

It's interesting you should mention Aurthur Weasley as the only 
person who could lead the fight against Voldemort.  

I quote from Fantastic Posts (and Where to Find Them):

"Members of the group have noted the similarity between the names 
Arthur Weasley and Arthur Wellesley, The Duke of Wellington. Arthur 
Wellesley led the British forces in the Battle of Waterloo in which 
Napoleon was defeated. Later he was the Prime Minister of the UK. 
Today there is widespread appreciation of his military genius and of 
his character as an honest and selfless politician, uncorrupted by 
vast prestige. The similarity in political careers is obvious, and it 
has been noted that this may be an indication that Arthur will have 
an important role in the upcoming fight against Lord Voldemort."*

I thought that was very interesting when I read it, since I had 
thought the same thing.  I think so especially after reading OoP.




~Margaret, who was very afraid Mr. Weasley was killed by that snake.
