Problem is, it's much more easier for Voldemort to keep Dumbledore off balance. 
Dumbledore has much more to protect - too much, in fact, he can't protect everything 
that Voldemort might attack.

If Voldemort employs terrorist tactics - attacking the innocents and uninvolved - I don't 
really see how Dumbledore might stop him there. Even if he somehow managages to 
keep the WW somewhat safe, he can't protect all Muggles. Magic makes it that much 
easier to strike strong blows - apparate, cast a spell, disapparate, that's it. Dumbledore 
might keep track of the whereabouts and activites of the known DEs, but there are so 
many he doesn't know, and it takes only one wizard, or rather one spell, to make a 
plane crash or destroy a building filled with people.

The effect will of course be a harsh psychological blow to Dumbledore and his 'army'. 
Some might fall into despair - what use is there in trying to protect something, only to 
see something else be destroyed, someone else be killed?
