 also wishing bad things or expressing ill feelings toward the person
 who has that thing, BECAUSE that person has it.

I think Ron was doing PLENTY of that in GoF. I will find quotes later
 tonight ( no book with me), if nobody else will"

Del replies :
I'd be interested in reading those quotes, because I can't remember
Ron wishing *ill* to Harry. I *can* remember Ron making sarcastic
remarks to Harry, but never wishing him ill. Ron never told Harry he
wanted him to lose or be hurt in the TWT. He never participated in all
the Harry-bashing. And when he realised that someone must have indeed
wished ill to Harry, he immediately sided by his friend again.
