"Harry's simply not the type to shrug his shoulder and say 'it's not
my problem' when he knows others are in danger. He does have a 'saving
people thing', but that's not a bad thing. Although, admittedly, he
does need to learn to temper it with a little forethought."

Del replies :
I admire Harry for always rushing to people's help. This is not what I
have a problem with in this case.

My problem is that he *believed* the dream was true when to me it was
so obviously a fake.

I'm not saying he shouldn't have done anything while knowing Sirius
was in danger. I'm just saying that if Harry had forced himself to
think straight (almost impossible, I know, which is *precisely* what
LV was counting on), he would have realised that Sirius and LV *could
not* be at the DoM, which in turn would have made him realise that
rushing to the DoM was the *last* thing he should do.
