Episode 6x16 / Re: A Summary Of 6 Years Of "Lost"

I read this on another site. I think they confirmed that this person did work on Lost for like 3 years as an intern, but wasn't involved in the show at the end.
Honestly, I couldn't get past this when I tried to read it:
MiB corrupting Ben? Not sure I follow this. From what I think we know, Ben was brought to the temple by Richard after Sayid shot him. I think its safe to say Ben went for a swim in the fountain. I don't think the fountain was linked in any way to MiB. So how else is it that MiB corrupted Ben? If Ben was corrupted, why wouldn't Jacob simply let it be known to The Others that someone else other than Ben was now in charge?
And when were the Others actively trying to kill the Candidates? Seriously? They had numerous opportunities to do so throughout the first several seasons (see the Ring of Fire episode or pretty much the entire time Jack, Sawyer and Kate were held captive - in fact, why then did the Others only have Michael bring them those three people? Why not all the candidates?).

Enter Dharma -- which I'm not sure why John is having such a hard time grasping. Dharma, like the countless scores of people that were brought to the island before, were brought there by Jacob as part of his plan to kill the MIB. However, the MIB was aware of this plan and interferred by "corrupting" Ben. Making Ben believe he was doing the work of Jacob when in reality he was doing the work of the MIB. This carried over into all of Ben's "off-island" activities. He was the leader. He spoke for Jacob as far as they were concerned. So the "Others" killed Dharma and later were actively trying to kill Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Hurley and all the candidates because that's what the MIB wanted. And what he couldn't do for himself.The show never says until the end that Jacob is trying to kill MiB. I think he was content to simply protect the island - that's just my own interpretation but I think this person is skewing things with his own interpretation. Regardless....
