     It could be that Dumbledor is interpreting the prophecy to mean 
that if Voldemort is killed, that it will also kill Harry.  Perhaps he 
is trying to find some way to prevent that from happening before he goes 
after V.  Remember the smoke snake that divided into two.  "In essence 
divided" but it started as one snake.
