Actually I can think of quite a few better plans, but what I am
asking if it is not too much to ask - please, do not misstate my
arguments.
The other part of the sentence, which you snip said "IF
circumstances will allow ". I was talking about the future, IF
unfortunate need will arise.
I UNDERSTAND the stress Hermione had to do her quick thinking under
and I do not fault her for that. I am GLAD that she saved Harry.
BUT under less stressful circumstances I am not sure I find hate to
be the best weapon even in fight against evil.
It is a very good thing , IMO, that we keep arguing about Hermione's
actions - I myself keep changing my mind on Marietta's thing after
reading different arguments. Shades of gray could be a lot of fun to
discuss.
I think I agree with those who said that Hermione's actions are
appropriate at the time of war and not at the time of peace and
Hermione WAS at war.
I may change my mind tomorrow again though. :o)
