Jen Reese:

This minor note is intriguing and provides a framework for my own pet 
theory: If if indeed this is DD's agenda  "Dumbledore stands by and 
lets it happen {COS} in the hope that the resulting battle can 
destroy the menace of the basilisk," then I'm proposing Lucius Malfoy 
is actually the Spy instead of (or with) Snape, and here's the 
evidence:

1. Lucius also knows Tom Riddle is Voldemort, unlike apparently most 
of the WW.

2. He is in possession of Riddle's "old school things."

3. Lucius plants the diary in Ginny's cauldron.

4. Lucius ensures that the Governors oust Dumbledore so DD has an 
excuse not to be present during the COS battle.

5. Lucius is a "loyal" DE, a powerful figure in the MOM and one of 
the governors of Hogwarts--the only person with the ability to know 
everyone's agenda.

6. Lucius either has his own pawn in Draco, whom he has "sacrificed" 
for the WW by training him to be a mudblood hater and eventual 
incitor of Harry; OR

7. Draco has been trained like his father to be a double agent--his 
role is to provide cover for his Dad and spy on the Slytherins.  This 
fits into the theory that Dumbledore is using the school as the base 
for the "transformation of the WW."

8. Lucius had Kreacher lure Sirius to the MOM on DD's orders so 
Sirius could be taken out of the picture.

9. Lucius prolongs the quest for the prophecy at the MOM and ensures 
Harry isn't killed by the DE's until LV makes his appearance at the 
MOM for his offical coming out party.


That's my evidence. Speculation? Flames? Contradictory canon? Bring 
it on!--Jen
