what about ilana being jacob’s daughter instead

I have a couple of observations:

While the island was skipping in time, sawyer and his crew found a boat near their old camp… That seemed to be the boat left by ilana’s people, specially because there were aljira’s bottled water in them… Who was shooting at them, then? Somehow I think this is a possible connection to bring people back in time…

About Rose and Bernard… they are just tired, and they don’t care about what other people do. This seems to be related to the standing challenge between Jacob and the mistery man, who claims that: “they arrive, they wanna take for themselves, they fight, they kill…” Somehow I think Rose and Bernard have reached lost’s nirvana… they just wanna live and let live.

It doesn’t make any sense to me, V3L… They didn’t do anything before, because Jacob needed to die to prove the point to the other dude… Ilana’s crew checked out Miles a week before he boarded Widmore’s ship. So they did have a broader understanding of the whole situation, and are not amateurs (see how Ilana arrested Sayid, a natural born killer, like Mr Echo). They waited until the fake locke left to do his thing, and they went about doing their own thing, which was to take real locke’s corpse to richard.

I have high hopes for Ilana. And the fact that Jacob went to see her before the whole mess started (although we don’t really have a time frame about when that took place – it could have been the german invasion of russia, for all we know) gives her a bigger role to play in the show.

Widmore was not shot and Locke had the gun not Sawyer. If you remember, Sawyer asked why Locke didnt shoot him and Locke responded someting like “He is on of my people” So no Widmore is not the statue and if it was him it would be a statue of something with a pig face not an alligator/crocodile

Ilana is Ma’at
Jacob is Osiris
Lou Pole is Set
Widmore has been the good guy all along ’cause he was trying to off Linus.
Eloise has been a bad guy all along because she had her working on a why to get everyone to the island.

Lou pole will try to convince everyone he’s the good guy and Ilana’s troop is not. Many will believe and go with him. This has been mirrored all time the choosing of sides, between beach/cave, jack/locke, others/survivors, and the figuring out if someone is good or bad in Locke’s cop, Henry Gale, Juliet, Mr. Eko, Rousseau’s Beau, Michael/Kevin J.

Next they will need to find a way to keep the loop going (the fight between these guys) and yet still exit the loop themselves. I think that if the loop is to stop the world-would-end-scenario would be upon the island baddies.

What is it that Eloise said to Des if he didn’t go to the island that ‘every single one of us will die.’ I think she means even single one of the bad guys.

[...] especially like this theory from JOpinionated (via DocArzt) because I too think that Ilana is a god. I don’t have the required knowledge of Egyptian [...]

Yup, apparently it’s jewish and it’s the feminine form of “Ilan”, which means “Tree”. Which, for the moment, sheds not light whatsoever on the character.

Ilana is not a Russian name although it sounds like it, but it is not.
If she was injured on the island while turning that wheel, she would get to Tunisia, but not Russia. Anyways, their Russian speech is confusing.

Cool thought!! I asked myself the same question – thought a white guy was out of place for Jacob – I expected him to be darker featured much like Richard — perhaps that only lends to the dark vs. light / good vs. evil imagery.

I thought that too – primarily because of the bodies having to be buried deep thing — like if he (Not-Locke) can’t see the body – he can’t assume its shape. They both (Jacob too) can assume forms.

I know this is flawed but — Not-Locke formless at that time was trapped in the cabin by the ash circle . . . “Help me” to John remember! Hurley stumbles across to the cabin remember – did he break the circle??? All of the sudden these incarnations of dead people begin showing up everywhere – Jacob when he traveled to the Real-World appeared to the losties as himself — was it then “Not-Locke” that was appearing as the dead messengers?

You are all totaly spinning off… making connections at everything…with nothing.

i guess that is kind of “normal”, considering the whole mindf@ck the lost creators has done to us…

But keep it on a level with all the stable answers we got..

It is only logical to assume that the whole mythology of LOST is not something very specific like Egyptian Gods or Atlantis or whatever and just that…

Its a mix of the greatest mythologies that we have known so far..
It sort of has everything in it.. so we shouldn’t try and say “oh..its THAT!!!”
Its something a lot more complicated due to its mix.

thx. that makes more sense to me now. the reason i thought they knew and still do anything was the fact that they had begun moving the crate etc ( as if it was theirs and they knew wat was in it) the same day that locke and ben left for the main island (caesar getting shot). when ben asked wats in the crate and if they needed help they said, no, its just sumthing they need moving as if they knew it was of great significance.

anyways ur answer makes more sense . thx again
