After rewatching 'Stranger In A Strange Land', I realised that a big deal was made out of Juliet's killing of Picket. The Others seem to be greatly opposed to the murder of one of their own. So much so, that Juliet was nearly sentenced to death. Now, this seems very harsh, and things were dealt with in such a way that it felt like slightly more was at stake than 'justice getting served'. Also, the strange brand that Juliet receieved is a mystery that has yet to be solved.
I don't know what it could be, but does this brand mean something bigger, is this why Juliet seems to be the ONLY other that has been excluded and is unstuck in time also, as she is shifting with the survivors whereas the others are more in tune with the island. When Widmore and Ben have an understanding that they cannot kill eachother, is this 'rule' about killing another more important than we know, does the island judge you in some way, disconnect you. Its already been hinted that sacrifices for the island have significance... Boone, Locke's father... so does killing an ally, or someone that isn't supposed to die yet have a consequence.
In the recent episode 'Jughead', Locke himself refuses to shoot the young Widmore running away and says "I can't kill him, he's one of my people..." - coincidence or a subtle hint from the producers?
