So, why would he hesitate on letting Voldemort meet up with baby Harry if that eventually meant Voldemort would be defeated. Keeping the cloak not only seems selfish but in a certain way...if Voldie happened to go to the potters, so what, seems like Voldie and Baby Harry meeting might have been what DD wanted.
I know the zombie fans and even JKR herself would say NO, Dumbledore would not do that but to me DTCL writers/ and theorists have shown and pointed out many instances where Dumbledore willinly puts or allows Harry and others to be in mortal danger, or even be killed for the greater good.
So, why would James/Lily be any more special than the other people Dumbledore claims to care about.

Albus looked "grim" when he spoke to Severus, his eyes were "sparkling" and he "chuckled" when he saw Minerva. He "bowed his head" to confirm for Minerva the rumor that Lily and James were dead, patted her on the shoulder, and said "I know... I know" heavily.
When Hagrid bursts into noisy sobs, it's Minerva who comforts and shushes him.
So no, he doesn't especially make a pretense of caring strongly about his two pawns.

Eeeewwwww. I became suspicious of Scumbledore in the very first chapter of PS/SS, believe it or not. But this makes him look even more disgusting than I realized at that time.
