And they would be true: 

1. Harry's struggles would be very significant. Harry is in a similar 
situation as Tom Riddle was in years ago. Both are half-bloods, both 
lost their parents, both had a very tough childhood being raised by 
muggles. And now in OotP Harry seems to be getting angrier as 
Voldemort's influence on him seems to be getting stronger. I think 
Harry may well be going down the same path as Voldemort once did. 
Harry's choices will then turn out to be very important in the 
struggle for Voldemort's humanity. 

Harry choosing not to give up on love will show Voldemort that it's 
not the situation we're placed in which determines what we are. We 
can choose ourselves what we become.

2. Harry's death wouldn't be insignificant or dumb. It's through his 
death that Voldemort would be able to live again. And it's only then 
that Voldemort can finally be killed.

3. With 'Voldemort will win' I was only referring to Voldemort's big 
final fight with Harry, not the definitive outcome of the whole 
series. I believe that in the end it's Voldemort's victory over Harry 
that causes him to become mortal again. And having just killed Harry 
it's very likely that one of Harry's friends will be attacking 
Voldemort right at that moment. 

Of course Voldemort being the competent overlord that he is, he will 
have long anticipated all this and put in place the appropriate 
precautions... right?...
