But we have no idea about those military guys. It very well could be that they were killed by a redneck, bald dude, and blonde chick. That's why i had my post about those three possibly being the first "hostiles" - but that's when i thought they were dharma folks.

And Locke met Ethan for the first time in season 1....except he didn't, because he met Ethan for the first time in the past....except he didn't.
It doesn't work. I don't really care that it doesn't work, except for the whole "YOU CAN'T BREAK THE RULES" bit.
My theory is Daniel lied to Sawyer. In fact we know he lied to Sawyer becuase he knew that Desmond could in fact break the "rules". But I think the "rule" is that talking to past Desmond immediately manifests itself in future Desmond. He's not bound by time. I think the people on the island are perfectly capable of changing the past. I just think Daniel wanted to keep Sawyer away from Desmond.
