ok so i watched it back, and something struck me. Remember Alex told Kate they were going to kil sawyer like they were going to kill karl? What if she meant, not literaly, but in the sense of the brainwashing. That one phrase, "We are the cause of our own suffering" seems to suggest they are trying to make karl believe that his suffering is his doing, that he has been bad. "God loves you like he loved Jacob." Well, God loves you, would be a nice way of telling someone that they will be forgiven and redeemed. The theme of the video, with all the flowers and stuff, seemed to be rebirth. Basically what i am getting at is that the brainwashing was a way of killing off rebellious karl, and giving him rebirth in the form of docile, brainwashed karl.

oh and, there was a picture of alvar hanso on that tape, which would suggest at least some level of cooperation with Dharma is still maintained, even if they are not one and the same.

Annnd i think Karl has been in such trouble because he took the fall for Alex letting Claire out of the Staff.
