Like Mindy I am confused about the prophecy and the actual defeat of
Voldemort. So I would like to expand above question a bit. What
happened  to 'the power the dark Lord knows not'? Does Harry defeat
L.V. with something unique in any way? Discounting Snape's twisted
love to Lily here, of course. 
Can it be true that he has the upper hand in the end only, because
through pure chance he holds the wand (Draco's) that happended in a
very questionable way to defeat the Elder Wand?

rather confused
