Then 2 eps ago it was half way explained that somehow he had been involved in a traffic accident and then woke up on the island.

And yeah, Locke's dad thinks the island is hell.

After Ben saw that John had killed his father, and he realized that Locke could hear Jacob, Ben probably realized that Locke was meant to take over the camp just as Ben had once done.

I think Ben shot Locke because he was protecting himself.

But if Locke healed from paralysis while on the island, is it possible he'll heal from the gunshot wound? Will he heal and be the key that destroys Ben and his camp?

Who the hell knows, all I know is that episode blew my mind, and Lost is back in a big way.

Yeah, it's eerie how Ben and Locke are similar, and I do think Ben is protecting his power by leaving Locke for dead. However, for some reason, I never saw it coming...

I see the upcoming "war" as similar to the one Ben started to rid himself of his father and the Dharma Initiative. It'll be interesting if we see anymore other flashbacks bringing some closure between that point and the "present". I do think Locke will recover, but now I'm not sure where his loyalties will be. He's more familiar with the Losties, however he has no intentions of leaving the island now...

I thought the show was slacking off a bit a few months ago, but it's been awesome lately.
Last week's episode reminded me of the first season when no one knew what the hell was going on.

Also, we now know that the show will only run for 3 more seasons, which is probably a very good thing. A show like this needed an end date so that the writers don't feel like they have to drag out some of the mysteries forever. I think it's really going to eventually end on such a high note for TV shows.

Yeah I think the parallels bewteen the Dharma Initiative/Hostiles fight and the Others/Losties fight is going to be a main arc.

The main question, beyond what the hell is going on and how it ends, is why?

Why were the Others so aggressive with the Losties from the start? To me that is the root question more so than all the mysteries of the island. They immediately assumed the worst and went directly into battle with a bunch of plane crashed people with whom they had no basis for problems.
