I just don't believe anything I see on this show anymore. One crazy man's confirmation that Minkowski is dead just isn't enough for me. I understand why they want to kill him off, he's sympathetic to Sayid and Desmond and could possibly answer their questions. But do I believe that he couldn't end up in the mix again? No. I don't really care either way about this character but it is another place where I can't believe what I see. I guess this is a question less about Minkowski and more about deaths on the island. We all thought Mikhail was dead when the blood ran from his ears only to see him return a week later in the jungle. Who is really dead? And will they stay that way?

Is this enough proof? Or are they again, misleading us so we don't figure anything out?
