Killing in war is not usually considered murder although a confirmed
pacifist might disagree. Harry is not a pacifist.

Wrong, it's only murder in the eyes of the law if a court convicts
him. It's up to you to decide if it's murder in your own eyes.

I do. I think Harry will use Avada Kedavra on Snape and Voldemort, and
I hope he will too. Harry is in a war and you can't get squeamish in a
war, if you do the enemy will win and you will end up dead. In the
real world millions of young men just as nice as Harry have been
forced to face this harsh truth and for JKR to shy away from it would
be cowardly. If JKR makes Harry get all warm and fuzzy when he
confronts his enemies in the final big confrontation we all know is
coming in book 7 it will be a dreadful book.

And Avada Kedavra is not the only way to kill someone, although I
certainly don't want Harry to kill Snape and Voldemort with love, I'd
rather he disembowel them. Now that would be a colorful way to end the
series! At any rate, if Harry is still alive at the end of book 7 (and
I rather doubt he will be) he will have nightmares till the day he
dies as well as a gnawing sense of guilt when he contemplates what he
had to do in that war, most soldiers do.

It means Harry will kill Voldemort or Voldemort will kill Harry or
both will kill each other. The only thing we know for sure is that
both can't live.
