Ben didn't want John to die because he though John knew how to get back to the island, after he heard that Eloise was there, he knew that she could help him (and the O6) get back to the island, so he didn't need Locke.
did he know that John was on the plane? he probably didn't care because how could he know that he would come back from the dead (which by the way is the coolest thing EVER and made me really happy!)
i hope Locke kills Ben...
so, everyone's accounted for but Sayid and Sun. i'm assuming that Sun and the pilot took the boat and went to the big island, but where is Sayid?
when Ceaser said took John to the injured i really thought that Sun would be there for dramatic affect, i'm kind of glad i was wrong.
Ah, that makes sense. Ben knew that John was on the plane though, he was the one who kept the body safe and told Jack to take it to the airport. Remember?
Perhaps he is going to use the whole John coming back to life thing as a new manipulative stance over some other people. John is probably going to have to rely on him to understand how he came back to life.
I don't know though, in the end I put it down to Ben just really wanting John dead and so he killed him not realising that he would come back to life - but that is obviously wrong since in Eloise's church he made this massive spiel about resurrection.
I like Caeser!
