Here is a bit more complete version: _/12 AN IMPORTANT MEETING TONIGHT WITH (R) AND (H) [or (m)] REGARDING THE DEVELOPING SITUATION. WE ARE NOW IN DAY 3 OF OUR EXODUS FROM THE VILLAGE AND I AM, I FEAR, AT THE LIMIT OF MY TACTICAL RESOURCES. (J)'S AGENDA, WHICH I DO NOT QUESTION, IS HOWEVER A NARROW AND DIFFICULT ONE AND I COULD WELL WISH WE HAD TIME TO PREPARE, NOT MERELY FOR THE MILITARY STRIKE, BUT FOR A PARTNERED (protracted?) CAMPAIGN. IN THE BUSH WE ARE SHORT ON PROVISIONS (SEASONAL) AND, MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE LONG-AWAITED RESUPPLY OF CAMP GEAR HAVING BEEN MISSED (AND SO NARROWLY!) JUST AS OUR WATER SUPPLY ROUTES HAVE BEEN CUT OFF. WE LOOK LIKE A VERY SAD SORT OF ANTIQUE ARMY. MORALE, I HAVE TO SAY, HAS FALLEN AS THE CIRCUMSTANCES ____ YET, FOR ALL THAT, I FEAR ARRANGEMENTS...
R=Richard? M=Mikhail? J=Jacob

this is very interesting, if this is all true then maybe we will see the others join the losties to fight this military invasion. Now that would be ironic and cool. Because the losties just fought with the others.

After reading that...I'm thinking that Naomi was working in favor of some military strike, and the freighter will locate the island...not neccesarily to save the losties, but will for some reason use military force against the others. So it looks like maybe we'll see an all out war. It will be interesting to see whose side smokey takes ;-)

Smokey will take sides with the polar bear and the Hurley bird.

Or maybe not. It'd take a serious military force to control that island, supported w/air and naval power. That place is bigger than Iwo Jima, with more difficult geography. Air support would be useless in a lot of places because of the triple canopy jungle. In this scenario, too bad most of the Others serious soldiers have been wiped out. I wonder... how/why did they miss their resupply? And what is Jacob's agenda? Solely to protect the island?

The missed re-supply was probably the LOSTies finding the supply drop and divying everything up

That and Locke blew up the Flame, which apparently controlled the supply drops.
