OK, this is my first time post, and its short. Ive been reading here for awhile but Ive never posted. Im sorry if this has been said before. Heres my theory:
In the season 4 finale we see Ben and Jack standing over Lockes dead body. This is when Ben tells Jack that they need to go back, ALL of them (reffering to Locke).
Now lets think about when the presumed "Easu" was in John Locke's body and told richard alpert to tell Locke that he needed to die. He told him, and Locke did die.... by BEN'S hands.
This is the loophole that easu reffered to. easu then somehow came into contact with ben, and ben made it a necessity for Locke to go back to the Island. Locke's body is then infilitrated by the Black-shirted man (easu) and takes Ben to kill jacob. Ben knows this, and that is why he does not hesitate to kill Jacob.
Ben is working for easu because they both want to kill Jacob. Together they acheive their ultimate goal.
Sorry if this is confusing... Its hard to put it all into understandable words. Thanks for reading!
