Bella must die in order to kill Voldemort.  Harry might be strong 
enough at the end of book 6 to do this (if he finds somebody to 
teach him more advanced fighting skills). Lucius will end up 
disgraced and penniless. 

I really don't think Snape will die.  I think he will be badly 
injured, and that Harry will save him.  Maybe Snape will finally 
have to admit that Harry is not all that bad.

DD knows that the only way to kill Voldemort is if Voldemort becomes 
more human.  That is why I think he had that look of triumph at the 
end of OotP.  I keep wondering about that line that DD told 
Voldemort in OotP that goes something like "there are worse things 
than death...that has always been your biggest weakness".  Sorry I 
don't have my book with me.  I am not sure exactly what that means. 
Do you think it is the Dementor's Kiss?
