Whew! No Snakes On A Plane. I know there has been extensive talk about the "planted" bodies (ew!) on other episode threads, but in light of last night's information, I thought it warranted a new thread.
So we now know that the 324 bodies came from Thailand.
Countries have federal laws about the transporting of dead bodies, and even more so about transporting bodies out of the country.
Jack was somehow able to get his father's body out of the country with the help of only a ticket agent, and in pretty quick time get through governmental red tape?
Mr. Paik was heard having conversation with an associate in D.O.C. about forged papers. Could those papers be about getting 324 bodies (which are all apparently taken from one neatly lined up place) out of Thailand and onto a plane in Australia?
Many people on this site have pointed out that one way that bodies are identified are DNA. We know Ethan, who worked for Ben, took blood samples from Losties, but really he didn't take that much blood:

On several occasions, the Others have taken blood samples from the survivors. It is unknown yet as to why they have done this.

I guess I am still confused about who put the bodies on the plane, and just like Michael's mom pointed out last night about how the reports all said ALL 324 people died, yet here we have Michael and Walt (and the O6) all alive. Were the bodies even salvageable? Or did they just have a mass burial at sea, and therefore didn't need DNA? It seems like Widmore bought the plane, but Ben has the DNA if the bodies were recovered (but most of the DNA belongs to "survivors")
