Pippin:
This part I don't understand. Snape can rejoin Voldemort, and
since nobody, Order or Ministry, has been able to find Voldemort, they shouldn't
be able to find Snape either. He doesn't need to be able to get information
to the Order to sabotage Voldemort's plans. There are plenty of ways to
put a spanner in the works from within, especially for an expert potion
maker. And if he's with Voldemort when Harry arrives for the kill, then
Harry may have an unexpected ally.
