He had believed that if he told no one what he was doing, that if he kept them in ignorance about the Horcrux hunt, then they would be safe. The Death Eaters would not harm those he loved because it would serve no purpose. He had been naïve. He had not kept his friends safe; he had left them on their own to wage a guerilla war against a school that was now hostile to them. He had left them to be tortured because they were his friends.
YES. Exactly. So glad you had Harry recognize it, albeit perhaps late. I'm sure some of the issue was Truth serum, nonetheless. Some are quite happy to have any excuse to maim and torture.
