Has anyone else noticed that Dumbledore seems to never be around when somethings happening with Harry and Voldemort (The first book he was called away on importaint duties, the second the govenors sent him away, and the fourth he wasn't there for the graveyeard part) The 5th book is the only one with Voldemort in it that Dumbledore was there to help, but it wasn't until he very end did he intervine. I think its possible that Dumbledore is not really as good as we think he is. Also how is it possible for Dumbledore not to catch that Pro. Moody in book four is not the real Moody? Even in the Penisive Dumbledore seems to be some what friends with the old man, and they have known each other for a long time. Mr.Weasley even says Dumbledore never miss' a trick, so how is it possible that he wasn't able to tell a good friend was an imposter, Fake Moody couldn't have been that good of an imposter?!

I'll admit that there are things that happen that make me wonder why or how Dumbledore didn't know ahead of time. But, in each of these instances I feel like there was just cause for him not being there (he got called away and then immediately KNEW something was wrong and returned, the Graveyard- I'm not sure what or how he could have had any idea about that really) As for Moody, yes, I always wondered how he didn't know about Fake Moody. I think it's not to be taken lightly that in OotP DD came face to face with Voldemort. I think little by little, book by book we see it becoming more and more inevitable that the final battle that happens at the end, has to happen at the end. My thinking is that if Dumbledore and Voldemort had a go at it now, then what ? Either DD will win and then Voldemort is no more or Voldemort wins and there goes DD, Harry, etc. Not only that, we still have the prophecy (and two more books) the consider. I think JKR has deliberately kept DD from "saving the day" so to speak because it lends itself the not just that battle at hand, but the final battle and crux of the story.
Just my thoughts on that...
