What's so special about Harry ?

Hello everyone !

I keep reading here and there that Harry is the only one that can 
kill LV. It's always bothered me, but I couldn't figure out why. And 
it suddenly hit me : why would Harry be the only one who could kill 
LV ? 

I know what the Prophecy says, but I don't see any *reason* why Harry 
should be the only one to be able to do the job.

I also know that Harry has got a very special power. But honestly, if 
that power is love as most people think, I don't see that it's 
anything *that* special. It's something LV doesn't know all right, 
but *a lot* of people out there know about it !

So what ? Are there Higher Powers out there who decided to put in a 
very special rule ? In my game that's called cheating, bending the 
rules to accomodate someone's will. And I don't see JKR doing that.

Why couldn't Dumbledore for example kill LV ? What would happen if he 
tried ? Would the Higher Powers strike him with lightning for daring 
to challenge their exceptional rule ?

So I repeat my question : why would Harry be the only one who could 
kill LV ?
