Someone pointed out that Locke has some kind of control over the Island, whether he knows it or not.
However, pondering it more, I think there’s a flaw in that theory. One Word:
ROSE
(Who you ask? Yeah, I know. Pisses me off too that we haven’t seen those two more.)
Rose’s cancer was cured by the Island. She also does not want to leave. And of course, Bernard won’t leave without her.
Unlike Locke, however, she won’t prevent anyone else from being rescued. Why does Locke care if anyone else leaves? Ben has a reason to prevent anyone else from leaving, and that the Initiative (not that we know exactly what that is). Locke doesn’t.
Speaking of the Others, if they’re in communication with the rest of the world (or were, until Locke blew everything up), and they went to “war” against the Losties & Tailies, why didn’t they get outside help for them when the plane crashed? They’re so protective of their studies (or whatever the hell it is they’re doing), they could’ve informed the Australian equivalent of the FAA where the plane went down and gotten them rescued. Or, if they didn't want outsiders to know, they could’ve lent the Losties & Tailies their boats and taken them elsewhere for further rescue.
Does this make sense to anyone else?
