I think the terrestriality of the island is confirmed pretty well by the newcomers. Their helicopter came from, presumably, a boat (I guess led to the vicinity by Michael, or by the same signal that clued Penelope in to its approximate location?). There seems to be some kind of bubble around the island that keeps outside stuff out and inside stuff in--it broke up the plane in midair and damaged the helicopter. But the bubble can be explained as part of the magnetic thingamajig; there's no reason to think it's on the moon, except that comic book tease.
Tunisia's being polar opposite to the approximate island location is worrying but I don't think matter's being mirrored. Hmm. Is any part of Tunisia at 23 degrees N? Maybe the magnet thing is supposed to have given the Earth its wobble.
