Alla:
How does it change things though? By giving  this information to 
Voldie he basically signed the death warrant to whatever couple  and their baby fitted the description of the "prohecy couple and child".

Juli: 
 
But it was ultimately Vodemort's choice to attack the Potters, he made the prophesy important, by hearing it he made it true. If no DE had heard the prophesy, would LV still have tried to kill James and Lily? I think so, even before the prophesy they had already fought Voldemort 3 times, they were close to Dumbledore and we already know Voldy and his DEs were trying to kill every member of the Order they could get their hands on, so there was a big chance that sooner or later the Potters were to be killed.

I'm not sure whether Snape is to blame, I think he was a bit involved with the assassination attempt on Harry, he was a loyal DE (I think) and he wanted his master to succeed. 

The thing is, the prophesy will be fulfilled because Voldemort chose to, he chose to believe in it, and by trying to prevent his future "murder" he actually gave Harry the tools to vanquish him for good.

Besides, didn't a spy (probably Snape, IMO) told Dumbledore that Voldy was after the Potters? Didn't he do everything he could to keep them save?
