A tour of building 23:
Well this could and should be the last week for the Dharma Special Access. The eighth and current password is bharosa.
Bharosa means trust in Hindi and is also an anagram of Basorah, another spelling of Basra. The "Basra Incident" was mentioned to Sayid by Juliet during a scene in the episode "One of Us".
JULIET: ... I'm curious, Sayid, how long was it before you told everyone on that beach exactly how many people you've tortured in your life. Do they know about Basra?
Basra is a city in Iraq, so viewers are aware that while Sayid was still in the country it is likely he visited there. Considering the extensive things we've seen and heard of concerning Sayid's past in the Republican Guard thus far, the Basra Incident must be something that surpasses anything presented to us as of yet - if it doesn't, Juliet would not have mentioned it specifically as the reason Sayid was not fit to be a 'moral center' of the Losties' camp.
The Basra Incident may also be a secret operation. Juliet reveals to Sawyer in the same scene that she knows he killed Frank Duckett in Australia before coming to the island - something not known even to Australian officials at the time.
