DD planned it all?

 I replied to a post saying basically this, and it hasn't appeared 
yet, and i don't quite know how this works... so I'm just going to 
try again with a fresh post!

 I have a theory, mainly because i refuse to believe that Snape is 
evil, that Dumbledore had planned his own death. It seems that Snape 
told him of his unbreakable vow with Narcissa, because on the tower, 
DD seemed to know all about Malfoy's plan to kill him, and I can't 
think of anybody who would have told him other than Snape. Now, if 
Snape WAS evil, then I really can't see the logic in telling 
dumbledore about it...
 Also! To coincide with another post about why Snape was given the 
DADA post, perhaps it is because DD if fully aware that being close 
the the dark arts, and the curse which seems to be on the postition, 
will bring out the worst in Snape; thus giving him the ability to do 
what needs to be done. My reasoning (although not strong) behind 
this is that when Snape and DD were arguing in the forest, snape 
claims that he 'doesn't want to do it anymore', could this actually 
be a reference to a plan that he would kill DD when the time comes, 
to save Malfoy from the fate of darkness? We could see that on the 
tower, Dumbledore wasn't concerned with his own fate at all (perhaps 
he was alreay dying, as there are constant references through the 
series to him appearing weaker and more frail) but more with the 
fate of Draco.
 At a SEVERE stretch, I might assume that DD chose to go out that 
night knowing what would happen, and knowing that drinking the 
potion would weaken him, allowing for his demise, making him more 
willing to die.
 The only problem i can think of atm is that it would have been just 
as easy for DD to allow one of the other Death Eaters to kill him... 
but perhaps that is why he was 'pleading' with snape, to kill him 
before Malfoy tried, knowing that the other DE's would be too afraid?

anyway, tha'ts just my little theory! It is flawed in many places :)
