I'm not sure what you meant about the WW being doomed
had Harry 
succeeded.
I read through a number of posts, and didn't see it. 
Do you have a
different link?  On that note, though, had Harry AKed
Bellatrix I think 
the
WW would have been doomed.  I'm not sure I agree about
the crucio, but 
I'll
wait until I read your other posts.

Mo:

I don't think Harry would have been able to AK
Bellatrice at all, even if he momentaraly wanted to
kill her.  
Again, his anger is righteous anger.  That alone gives
him moral justice because he internally wants
goodness.  You can't cast an AK unless you really want
to kill someone permanently.
Crouch!Moody even says to the class something like:
"you could all point your wands at me and utter the AK
words, but I doubt I would get so much as a
nosebleed."
We already know that the more people who cast a spell,
the more powerful it becomes.  So, the fact that about
30 students could try the spell and have no effect is
saying a lot.  
It has to be utter evil intent to want to kill someone
with AK.

However, as I have mentioned before, I think there are
other spells that can be used to kill someone other
than AK.  AK is just the final death curse with no
chance to recover.
