>Or, assuming that DD really is dead, was it wrong to kill  dumbledore
if that was the only way to get Harry off the tower? (Snape would  have
seen the second broom and deduced that Harry was there in  his
Invisibility Cloak.) If the choice was not between Snape's own  life
and Dumbledore's but between Harry's life and Dumbledore's, was  it
wrong to choose Harry?
 
Nikkalmati:
I don't think JKR would ever give young readers the impression that it is  ok 
to kill someone in certain circumstances, just as I don't think she would  
allow a character to commit suicide for a good cause.  To my mind, that  means 
Snape committed deliberate murder and is evil or DD is not actually  dead.

She is reported to have said, that something(s)  she wrote in earlier 
books have boxed her in.

Nikkalmati:
I am reluctantly thinking that she may have decided that she cannot get  
Snape out of the Unbreakable Vow. In that case it is probably Snape and  Draco who 
die.  Boo hoo.
Possibly, Ron has been saved.
