the island serves as the gates to the lost city of atlantis....i.e. weird animals/4-toed monstrous statues....the gate opens every 108 minutes so pushing the button keeps the gate closed....by des using his key the sealed the gate "permanantly" with echo, locke, and des crossing over....the others know of the gate and are the "good guys" by keeping it a secret and keeping it safe...




then why do they want Kate Jack and Sawyer?




maybe this is their recruiting tactics for replacing old, dying, or killed "others" maybe they see something in those three and think they can turn to be protectors of the gate....
