Can Harry kill LV? Was: Why can't Harry?

I firmly believe that Harry will not "kill" LV with a 'killing curse'.  DD 
mentions numerous times the power that Harry has, the power which the dark lord 
knows not, this power is LOVE.

On page 500 of HBP Dumbledore tells Harry that as far as he knew, therefore 
as far as LV knew, no wizard had done more than spilt his soul in two.  I 
believe DD is referring to Grindelwald in this passage.

JKR has stated in interviews that the importance of the defeat of Grindelwald 
will be revealed in book 7.

I think Grindelwald was the first wizard to create a horcrux, I believe DD 
discovered this, destroyed the horcrux and then defeated Grindelwald.

IMO  DD likely found a more creative way to destroy Grindelwald, I think 
Harry will do the same.

This isn't to say there will not all out wizarding war (I think Hogwarts will 
be attacked directly) but I think Harry's power lies not in his ability to 
perform unforgiveable curses, were the final battle between LV and Harry to be 
based on dueling skills alone, Harry would certainly lose.

Harry has a power foreign to LV, that power is his ability to be a good pure 
person despite all the hardships of his life.  

LV was nearly defeated by Lily's act of love, it will be Harry's sacrifice 
that will ultimately destroy him in the end IMO.  I only hope Harry can still 
survive.
