Voldemort is part Muggle (non-magic people)
He despises others who are part-Muggle and wants to rid the world of them
He has followers who feel the same way and do not hesitate to murder; he and his followers also kill Muggles with no hesitation
After his return to power, the Wizard (Prime) Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, denies that he is back in power and a threat
Headmaster Dumbledore, who Fudge fears wants his job, knows that Voldemort is back and must be dealt with.
