Foe glass

I've always been struck by the big deal JKR makes of Snape appearing 
in the Foe Glass.  First Harry sees DD, Snape and McGonagall in the 
glass, and then the DD and McG move further into the room and Snape 
remains reflected in the Foe Glass alone.  Perhaps JKR is being very 
sneaky, and the Foe Glass has just switched from showing Crouch's 
enemies to showing the real Moody's enemies.  Snape could be a foe of 
both Crouch and Moody; indeed, he has personal reasons to hate them 
both whether he's loyal to LV or DD.

   But even if Snape is on DD's side at the end of GoF, he could have 
defected back to LV by the end of HBP.  So I can't take the Foe Glass 
as proof of Snape's goodness, but I prefer to believe that he *will* 
be shown in Book 7 to be a loyal Order spy. :)
